Distress Reo Short Sale

When an owner owes more than the house is worth and a sale is procured for less than the balance, there is a deficiency.  The bank is shorted.  In some cases, the deficiency is waived.  We typically work with attorneys who handle the legal process as we handle the sale and processing of documents.  In some cases, we submit the documents directly to lenders or through Equator, always with the guidance of an attorney.  Read more here about short sales.

Part of the process is understanding how short sales work and managing expectations (as well as frustrations) along the way.  While the process of short selling has been streamlined, it does typically take no less than 60 days in total, sometimes longer.

As an active brokerage, we work with attorneys in all practice areas. While selling is a common reason for our involvement, we work with buyers seeking a ‘deal’ and are well networked to find them, often direct from lenders.

REO or, Real Estate Owned, are properties a bank has successfully repossessed. Banks are in the business of money, not owning real estate. In most cases, banks want to sell the asset and recoup their funds. We have a great network of attorneys, banks, and private lenders who have REO properties and are interested in selling.

With our connections and our network, we can connect you with the opportunity you’re looking in search of.
