A very popular option is to sell your home as a Short Sale. Buy selling your home as a Short Sale, you give yourself an opportunity to walk away from your home without the worry of going into foreclosure or seriously damaging your credit!

How Short Selling Your Home can Help You

  • Avoid Foreclosure - Letting your home go into foreclosure can take anywhere between six and twelve months to complete. This can be a very hard and stressful process for a family.
  • Control - By choosing to face foreclosure head on, you will gain some control over the process. Choosing to short sale your home, means that you have an opportunity to be a part of finding a buyer and negotiating terms with the bank. Ultimately, dodging foreclosure can have a huge effect on your credit score.
  • Start Fresh, Faster - By short selling your home, you will be minimizing the damage to your credit score. This can help you and your family get back on your feet faster as you will be eligible to purchase another home faster than if you had foreclosed on your home.
  • No Balance - It is possible that you may not owe anything after the short sale. You can try to find out if the bank will cancel your entire debt altogether.

All in all, a short sale is still a far, far better alternative to foreclosure and is definitely worth the effort.
