How A Eastlake Short Sale Helps Preserve Neighborhood Values

Eastlake CA – Yes, short sales actually help preserve home values in a neighborhood. Here is why.

Most people short sell their home while they are still living in the home. They are maintaining the home, mowing the yard, keeping the air conditioning on, etc.

Most bank owned properties are empty for 3-6 months, if not longer. No one maintains the home during that time period. Empty homes are easy targets for vandalism and thieves.

The grass and yard get overgrown. Pools deteriorate and the water turns green with algae.

In some Southern States, such as Florida, if a home is not air conditioned during the summer, then mold will grow on the walls inside.

In the Northern States, if a home is not heated during the winter, then pipes can ice up and break causing a lot of plumbing damage.

Even things as simple as sprinkler system can have problems when they aren’t used for 3-6 months. A sprinkler system contractor recently told us that if the system isn’t ran at least once a month, then it can have problems.

All these things added together cause bank owned homes to sell for much less than a short sale. That is why you should be proud that you are short selling your house.

You are doing a big part to help keep the housing market and your neighborhood. In addition, you are helping the entire economy because the housing market is such an important part of it.

Another Common San Diego Short Sale Myth: The Foreclosure Process Goes So Fast That I Don’t Have Time To Short Sale


San Diego CA – Another Common San Diego Short sale myth:   
The Stop foreclosure Institute recently received a question from Susan about short sales. Here was Susan’s Question.

“My home is scheduled to be going on the courthouse steps in about 2 months. I had thought about short selling, but a friend told me I wouldn’t have enough time to do it.

Because of that I didn’t pursue a short sale earlier. Recently I decided to look into it further. It looks like a good option compared to foreclosure. My question is this.

Do I have enough time to short sale my house, or is the foreclosure already too far along? Please let me know. Sincerely, Susan.”

Get my Free, Step By Step Loan Modification Guide by clicking here.

Here was our answer. Susan, we can still help you with a short sale. Most lenders will postpone a foreclosure when a short sale offer is in place. Yes, a short sale usually takes 2-6 months to process.

However, many lenders will postpone the sale while a short sale is in the works. In addition, some short sales go faster than the normal 2-6 months.

If your lender owns you loan in house, then the decision maker will be easy to reach. They can approve or deny the short sale in a matter of a week or two.

So, please let us help you. We have a good success rate even when the foreclosure process has already been started. As you well know, a short sale beats a foreclosure because you can buy another home much sooner.

San Diego Short Sales: My Ex Is Short Selling. What Can I Do?

San Diego Short Sales – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question from Tom about short sales. Here was Tom’s Question.

“My Ex-wife decided to Short Sell our former house. Unfortunately we both signed the mortgage when we bought the house together. I think that means I am still liable for the debt.

She got the home after the divorce. The court gave her the home in the divorce. The market has declined and the house is worth about 120k less than the mortgage amount.

I have a good job and some assets. Will I have to pay back the bank ofr the money they lose. (My ex is selling because of financial problems.)

Also, someone said I might have to pay income taxes on the written off debt. Is that true? Please help me out here. Sincerely, Tom.”

Get my Free, Step By Step Loan Modification Guide by clicking here.

Here was our answer. Tom, you probably should talk to a good lawyer. This is not the standard short sale. There might be tax laws that will allow you to not be liable for the tax liability on the written off debt.

In my opinion, the Tax Law allows you to write off most of the forgiven debt on a short sale. You have to short sell the house before the end of 2012 and have lived there for 2 of the last 5 years.

Your ex probably meets that criterion. I would think that since she lives in the house, then you wouldn’t be liable for the taxes. But, then again, I am not an accountant and don’t know how the law would affect such a unique situation.

Will you have a deficiency judgment? We can’t know for sure because there are so many variables involved. However, in about 80% to 90% of the time, you won’t have a deficiency.

That is because most lenders just forgive the debt. They have found it tough to collect the upside down debt. Most people are short selling because of financial problems.

They are struggling to avoid bankruptcy without a large deficiency judgment. When they see a $100,000 deficiency, then they will probably just declare bankruptcy. Then the lenders gets nothing anyways.

Check with a competent short sale realtor in your area. They will be able to give you a good idea of whether or not you will have to pay the deficiency.

Golf Course Living for $2.66/day, Is this a bargain or what?? (edit/delete)

Golf Course living for an additional $2.66/day, what a bargain! 
Beautiful community of Eastlake Greens, in East Chula Vista, CA. is located 20 minutes South of Sunny San Diego, California, and 20 minutes to the border with Mexico.

What once was the fastest growing city in the Nation, back in 2006, became one of the first casualties of our collapsed economy.
Home prices in Eastlake Greens went from $580,000 for the smallest 3 bedroom detached home in 2006, to $270,000 for the same home in 2011.
Eastlake Greens is developed around a beautiful Golf Course, you can enjoy the beauty of its fairways from many of the homes, as well as when driving around the neighborhood.
The price of homes, when compared to the price of similar homes in nearby communities is basically the same, it has a reasonable Home Owner's Association Fee of $80.00 a month, that adds to $2.66 per day.
Wouldn't you agree with me that it is worth every penny of it?
Now, if you want an even better bargain, you can always check on the current foreclosures in the area. East Chula Vista is also one of the cities that was most affected by this weak economy.
At houseinsandiego Realty, we are also proud to be actively helping dozens of families every month to avoid foreclosing of their homes, we help them apply for Loan Modification at no charge, and if they don't qualify or the bank's propossal is not up to the homeowner's expectations, we help them Short Sell their home and get their debt forgiven, all at no cost to them.
Three Ways The Big Banks Could Stabilize Housing Prices And Increase Their Profits At The Same Time



Eastlake CA – Many Americans are concerned about the housing market. If they housing market continues to decline, then it could drag the entire economy with it. At least that’s what some economists are saying.

We want to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. So, we decided to propose a solution

Here Are 3 Ways The Big Banks Could Stabilize Housing Prices And Increase Their Profits At The Same Time.

Get my Free, Step By Step Loan Modification Guide by clicking here.

#1: Approve more Loan Modifications. Every loan modification is one less home that has to be sold as a distress sale. Distress sales are dragging down home prices.

In addition, many loan mods are rejected, only to see the lender lose even more money when the home sells. Here is an example. A homeowners offers to pay their lender an amount equal to a $300,000 mortgage.

That means the homeowner would pay the same as someone borrowing $300,000 to buy a home. The lender rejects their loan mod offer and forecloses on the home. It sells for $200,000.

Don’t kid yourself, this happens every single day. The loan owners lose millions as a result.

#2: Make short sales easier. Yes, short sales do close. But, many don’t. The ones that don’t are usually sold for less money as a foreclosure. An extreme example is a home that received a $380,000 offer as a short sale.

The lender rejected the short sale. The home was foreclosed upon and sold for $230,000. The reason that lenders usually lose more money on foreclosure compared to short sales.

First, most foreclosures are usually left empty for several months. Mold, mildew, and other things make the home undesirable.

Second, most foreclosures are taking 18 months or more. That is a lot of time that a home can sit empty. In addition, interest, attorney fees, unpaid property taxes and other costs are growing each day.

#3: Handle foreclosures better. We have seen many foreclosed homes sit empty for months and months. In one extreme example, a foreclosed home has been sitting empty for over 2 years.

(The picture above is the front of that home.)

In that time period local housing prices have dropped by 20-30%. Interest and property taxes have accrued over those two years.

Here is how banks could do a better job handling foreclosures.

First, put all foreclosures on the market within a week. There are a lot of hungry, aggressive real estate agents that would love to market these properties.

Put them to work getting the homes sold for top dollar as quickly as possible. The typical 2-3 month wait it not acceptable, especially with all the hard working agents available.

Second, maintain the vacant homes. The home pictured above is wide open. The doors are not locked. Anyone can walk right in and vandalize the place.

I have seen profanities spray painted on the walls of vacant, bank owned homes. Think that affects the sale price?

These are just a few ideas. The next time you hear your local banker tell you how they “care”, ask them how their bank is handling the recommendations in this blog post.

To us, a banker telling us about how they supposedly “care” just rings of hypocrisy. And it will ring of hypocrisy as long as these problems continue to hurt homeowners, the housing market, and the American Economy.

Questions Buyers Should Ask The Agent Listing A San Diego Short Sale

San Diego CA – Are you looking to buy a short sale? Before you make an offer, you need to check and see how competent the listing agent is at short sales.

The listing agent is the agent with the property for sale. They will usually be in charge of processing the short sale with the lender.

Get my Free, Step By Step Loan Modification Guide by clicking here.

If the listing agent is a genuine short sale expert and knows what they are doing, then you have a very good chance of the short sale being approved and buying the home. I’ll show you how to separate the experts from the pretenders in this post.

If the agent is not a genuine short sale expert, then you are probably wasting your time. You should go find another home to buy.

First, ask them how many short sales they have successfully sold. If they have only sold 2-3 short sales, then the odds are not in your favor. You risk wasting months of time waiting for an answer on the short sale.

Next, ask them how many loans are on the property. If there is only 1 loan, then you know two things. First, they know what they are doing. Second, this is relatively simple short sale.

If there are two loans, then the property is still worth considering. However, if there are 3 or more loans, then you might want to look at another home. Short sales with 3 or more loans are very difficult.

The first mortgage won’t give enough money to the second and third position mortgages. The second and third position mortgages won’t release their lien without more money. At the end, everyone loses (that is another story for another day.)

Lastly, ask who the lenders are. If the lenders are Bank of America, or another notoriously bad lender at short sales, then you might want to avoid the property. However, a competent short sale agent can handle a Bank of America short sale with ease.

How Long Do I Have To Wait After A San Diego Short Sale To Buy Another Home?



San Diego CA – The Stop Foreclosure Institute gets asked this question quite a bit. The answer depends on the type of loan you are looking to use to purchase your next home.

Here are the details on your options to buy another home after a short sale.

Get my Free, Step By Step Loan Modification Guide by clicking here.

Owner Financing. You can buy a home with owner financing anytime after a short sale.

FHA Financing. (FHA is very popular because it only requires you to put down 3.5% and pay your closing costs. You can usually convince the seller to pay your closing costs, thereby reducing your down payment to 3.5% of the purchase price.)

FHA’s current guidelines state that you can get an FHA loan immediately after a short sale, provided that you never missed a payment. If you were in default at the time of the short sale, then you have to wait 3 years before they will approve your loan.

Fannie Mae Loan. Fannie Mae is the most common loan program. You can get a Fannie Mae Loan in as little as 2 years after a short sale. But, you have to put 20% down.

If you wait 4 years, then you have to put a minimum of 10% down. After 7 years, you can get a Fannie Mae Loan and put less than 10% down.

The most attractive (and currently most popular) loan program in America is FHA. The reason is because it’s down payment requirements are much lower than anyone else. It looks like the best option to buy your next home after a short sale.

San Diego Short Sales: Bank won’t allow my seller to avoid short sale process


Eastlake CA – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently received a question from another agent. Apparently they were being mislead on a short sale by a large national lender.

Here is the question we received: “Do you have a number to contact Fannie Mae? The bank (Large National Bank) will not allow the seller to not do a short sale and agree to repay the loss on a promissory note.

She said that she has to talk to the investor which is Fannie Mae. My sellers just wants to sell and move on with their life. Janet.”

Here was our response. I understand the logic of what your seller is trying to do. They think that they can just sell the home for less thant it’s worth, sign a promissory note for the difference, and move on with their lives.

The sad reality is that life’s not that simple, especially when you are dealing with bankers. Before they make any changes on anything, they want to make sure that everything is ok.

In order to make sure everything is ok, they will have to process the sale as a short sale. That is why they demand before they will transfer the upside down debt to a promissory note.

They always like to keep things at the status quo. Any big changes need to be very carefully evaluated. It’s just the way bankers work.

So, if your seller wants to sell and repay the debt on a promissory note, then they will have to go thru the formal short sale process. It’s the only option that I see.

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.

This is not intended as legal, technical, or tax advice. Please speak with a licensed professional before making any decision. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed as of the date of writing.

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.

San Diego Short Sales: Why Is Everyone So Negative About The Housing Market?


Eastlake CA – The tax credit expired and everyone turned negative on the housing marketing.

One so called expert said we could see headlines about the real estate market crashing again. Another said that the housing market is going to continue it's decline for another years or two.

He referenced an article that showed that mortgage applications dropped by 9.5 percent the first week after the tax credit expired.

I don't want to apply for the job of "Amateur Economist." Here are a few examples I found of actual economists getting their predictions wrong.

1. An economist published a book in 1987 that predicted a depression in the 1990s. That proved just a little inaccurate, no?

2. Supposedly in 1996, Alan Greenspan, stated he thought there was too much irrational exuberance in the US stock market. The stock market continued to climb for another 4 years.

However, Greenspan was bullish on the last economic expansion that went best. How wrong was he on the last housing / economic bust?

Who really knows what is going to happen in the housing market. I do know that despite all the crazy predictions, the housing market will eventually recover. It might take another 1-3 years to flush out all the foreclosures and "shadow inventory."

But, after that happens the housing market will stabilize and start a slow appreciation. It might take 8-12 years for prices to return to the previous high. Maybe even longer. But, they will turn around eventually.

What does that mean to the person in an upside down house? They have a great opportunity to short sale their home and buy at the bottom.

They can erase 8-12 years of negative equity and start building equity when they qualify to buy another home 3 years after their short sale. If you are upside down by 20% or more, a short sale makes great financial sense.

What do you think? E-mail me back if you are bearish or bullish on housing. Just put "Bull" or "Bear" in the subject line of your e-mail. I'll release the results of this informal poll tomorrow.

Common San Diego Short Sale Myth: Short Sales Are Difficult And Banks Never Approve Them

Eastlake CA – The Stop Foreclosure Institute recently talked to a homeowner whose home had been sold on the courthouse steps.

We asked if she had considered selling the home as a short sale. “I did, but I heard that short sales are difficult and not worth trying. My friend told me that the banks never approve them”, she told us.

After we got off of the phone, we reviewed what she had lost. She lost the opportunity to protect her credit and to be able to buy a home 3 years after the short sale sold.

Now she will have greater credit damage and will have to wait 5-7 years to buy another home. Ouch! All of this could have been avoided if she had known the truth about short sales.

Yes, short sales are approved by banks. Bank CEOs and the people who invest in mortgages prefer them over a foreclosure. Why?

Because the average short sale reduces the lender’s loss by 20-40% compared to a foreclosure. They want to reduce their losses as much as possible.

The banks are just having a hard time handling the huge increase of short sales caused by the housing crisis. But, don’t kid yourself. They wouldn’t be approving any short sales unless there was a big benefit to them financially.

They have analyzed the market and see short sales as a viable way to reduce their losses as much as possible.
