Say No to Foreclosure Tampa: Short Sale Help Here

Are you a Tampa Bay homeowner that's having trouble making your mortgage payments?  We offer free Short Sale help to Tampa homeowners.  There are many ways to lose a home but signing away ownership in a manner that destroys credit, embarrasses the family and strips an owner of dignity is one of the hardest. For owners who can no longer afford to keep mortgage payments current, there are alternatives to bankruptcy or foreclosure proceedings. One of those options is called a "short sale."

What is a short sale?  The easiest way to explain it is that its like being "upside down" in your car, but you are upside down in your home - maybe you bought a home for $300,000 and now its worth only $250,000 and you are struggling financially, so you can't sell it at $300,000, and you don't have an extra $50,000 to make up the difference.  In a short sale, you are asking the lender to take less than what you still owe on the mortgage, thus selling it "short".

As your Tampa Short Sale Realtors, we use a professional short sale negotiation company called Florida Short Sale Negotiators.  This service is paid for by us, as your Realtors, and costs you NOTHING as the homeowner.  Please be wary of Realtors and other Short Sale companies who charge you an upfront fee.  In a short sale, there should be no commissions charged to the Seller and no fees.   The lender pays the Realtor's commission. 

In our experience, FSSN has been able to negotiate directly with the Seller's banks in a shorter period of time and get the short sale processed quickly and smoothly.  Together we have had a 100% success rate with our short sale listings being approved by the lenders and getting sold.  Perhaps you've heard about how long short sales can take.  Recently FSSN was able to get an an approval for a short sale within 2 weeks of us submitting the file to Wachovia, and not only that, Wachovia offered the Seller a $5,000 bonus for doing a short sale within 30 days instead of allowing the property to go into foreclosure!
