Why Is My Bank Willing To Pay You To Short Sale My Home?
New Castle County, DE –
The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question from Samir. Here was his question: “I am thinking about short selling my house. I’m just wondering how I can get someone to help me. I know that your website says that a short sale costs me nothing. I just have a hard time understanding why my lender would pay you if they are losing money. Please explain that. Samir.”

Here was our answer to his question: We get paid because the bank benefits financial from a short sale. Yes, they are losing money. But, they are paying us because we are helping them cut their losses. This is because they get to sell the house at today's price, versus what it will be worth 6-12 months down the road.
I just did a comparison and pulled up sold homes. All of the homes were very similar. First, I looked up the average selling price per SQFT of homes that sold in 6-8 months ago. They sold for an average of $103 a SQFT. Then, I pulled up houses in the same neighborhoods that sold after the bank had foreclosed on them. Those sales were in the last 2 months. They are sold for an average of $85 a SQFT. These homes average 1,700 a SQFT. That means a 1,700 bank Foreclosure sold for $30,600 less. Ouch!
As you can see, a short sale realtor brings tremendous amount of value to the bank. You also benefit. Your credit damage is reduced. You also, have a lower chance of being chased down for the bank’s losses. A short sale is a win - win for everyone involved!

David Sordelet, Prudential Fox & Roach Realtors, and the Stop Foreclosure Institute are not affiliated in any way, shape, or form with the government. Our services have not been reviewed or endorse by the government or your lender. Most lenders willingly work with agents on short sales. Why? Because most short sales are beneficial to a lender. If you accept our offer to help you on a short sale, your lender may not agree to a short sale or to modify your loan. We do offer a loan modification kit.
However, the likelihood of negotiating a modification is like everything else in life. It takes work and persistence to convince your lender to modify your loan. No matter what you or we do, your lender may not approve a loan modification.
We do not recommend that you stop paying your mortgage, because this will cause damage to your credit and could cause you to lose your home. Because we know avoiding Foreclosure is so important to any homeowner, we recommend that you speak with the appropriate legal or tax advisor before making any decision. You have the option to reject a short sale or loan modification from your lender if it does not meet your approval. If you decide not to go thru with the short sale, then you do not have to pay us our fee. We normally make a real estate sales commission for helping you on a short sale.
