Short Sale defined ~

January 30th, 2009

Another visit to Wikipedia reveals the definition of a   “Short Sale”.

While not completely inclusive the surface explanations are OKAY.

How one is conducted for the benefit of the homeowner/lender is a totally and completely different subject.

We just completed another one successfully in New Orleans…and we are receiving many more phone calls by both homeowners and agents regarding the many nuisances  surrounding this  “heard of but never really explained”  topic. Often times it’s been referred to

“ The Secret Mortgage Companies ~ Would Prefer You Not Know”

Read more about it here:

There certainly is much more to it than what meets the  eye on the surface and we can certainly assist you in this arena.

Are you afraid to speak to your lender because you have fallen behind in payments…I’m Not!

Let Us Help You Stop Foreclosure Now

We start working for you from the initial call. In our Operations Center, we will gather and analyze your data and begin to prepare a strategic plan to help save your home. With plan in hand, our Mitigation Team will negotiate with your lender to stop your foreclosure, so you don’t have to! Because we know and work with most lenders regularly, they are very receptive to us. We know how to present the situation to them so that you end up with the best solution.

Below is just a short list of the most common ways to possibly stop foreclosure:

  • Reinstatement Plan
  • Repayment Plan
  • Loan Modification
  • Loan Restructuring
  • Loan Refinance
  • Forbearance Agreement
  • Redemptions
  • Partial Claim
  • Pre-Foreclosure Sale
  • Short Sale
  • Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure

How Can I Avoid The Foreclosure Process?

The most common question we are asked is “How can I avoid foreclosure?” Foreclosure is the process in which your mortgagor or other lien holder obtains a court ordered termination of their equitable right of redemption. This usually occurs only after a default by the borrower who has failed to make payments per the terms of the mortgage or deed of trust. The process starts when you receive a “Notice of Default” or N.O.D. When the foreclosure process is complete, the lender can take your property and put it up for sale and keep the proceeds to pay off the mortgage costs and any legal costs associated with the foreclosure. This can negatively affect your credit score and possibly disqualify you for a new mortgage for at least 3 years.

So how can you avoid this? The first most obvious answer is to comply with the terms of your mortgage agreement and make timely payments. If you are experiencing financial hardship and can document that fact, but still have a solid income and the desire to keep your home, HomeLoanPartners.com can represent your legal interests to your lender and renegotiate your existing loan. Our experienced Case Managers, and Attorneys will build a case and notify your lender you are represented by us at Mahony Title.

This process will force the lender to deal directly with us or our staff Attorney and they can no longer contact you directly.


What are some exampled of hardship?

  • Inability to work due to health issues
  • Business failure
  • New lower paying job / Laid off / Loss of income
  • Death of a spouse or family member
  • Mounting bills
  • Divorce or separation
  • Cannot afford new adjusted mortgage payment
  • Unable to refinance due to current lending restrictions( LTV / Low Credit etc…)

We can help you get more favorable loan terms IE a lower payment and interest rate. In some cases, if you owe more than your home is now worth, we may even be able to get the lender to forgive some of the principal on your loan, or even let you add any missed payments to the principal balance or provide you with a structured repayment plan for your past due balances.

Our loss mitigation service department can help you save your home by preparing a financial plan for your lender that you can afford. We will also analyze your financial situation as well as the terms and income you made when you were approved to determine if there is a case for a predatory lending claim.

All of the facts surrounding your case will be presented by your Loss Mitigation Specialist to force the lender to renegotiate your terms so you can save your home. Loss mitigation departments are understaffed and trained to put off the customer and not address your issues. Having a Third Party Mitigator on your side fighting for you will force them to address the merits of your case. In some cases, your financial situation may not merit a loss mitigation process ad we will recommend alternatives such as a short sale or bankruptcy protection. In these cases we will not submit your renegotiation plan but will refund the fees for that process to you.

Call us today for a free consultation to see if you qualify for a restructured loan.
