How much does it cost to do a Short Sale?

What does it cost to short sale your home:

Most of the time nothing. The bank pays both Realtors and pays the taxes and other fees. If you live in a Townhome you may need to pay the association dues until it closes. If you don’t you may have the Association put a judgment against you which they can garnish wages or levy bank accounts.

Some clients have had to bring money to satisfy the first or second mortgage. I have never seen an amount higher than $6000, but then again I am still shocked in what I see in some short sale approvals from time to time. Depending on if the bank knows it is a rental property and the owner has not paid the mortgage in 8 months but has continued to collect rent (consult legal advice) this may work out for the short selling owner. Other scenarios have been that the second mortgage has taken a portion of the $3000 hafa funds provide by the first. Most banks understand that the homeowner doesn’t have much money, but they also understand how long that homeowner has not been paying the mortgage and still living in the property.
