Short sale home in Arizona.

October 14th, 2008 by Jarad S.

Question: I just purchased a short sale home in AZ. GMAC had the 1st position and Indy Mac had the 2nd position. We signed and the short seller signed. The HUD was sent to title and it was registered and released. However, the short seller and broker says we still owe Indy Mac 15K and won’t get the home. Can this be possible?

Answer: -Sure, if that’s what you negotiated with them.  On the HUD it should show the amount each lender will be receiving.  The 2nd always wants something in order for them to release the lien or else it makes no sense for them to it.  They’d be better off letting it go to auction and hope someone bids past the opening bid.   The 1st typically wants to know how much the 2nd is receiving because they don’t want them to get anything, which is why sometimes it has to be handled outside of closing.

As for real estate technique specific books, I bought a complete foreclosures and short sale course on the internet. The course (4 books) that I bought was from foreclosureuniversity.com and by a guy named Jared Severe. His "Short Sale Secrets of the Wealthy" is absolutely fabulous!!!! It is just a straight forward, step-by-step guide to doing a short sale and includes every form that you need in the order you need them. It also explains how to fill the forms out and why you are doing it!!!!!! EXCELLENT! This is exactly what I have found to be lacking in so many other books.

Two months ago...if someone told me that I would have a deal going in real estate I would have told them they were crazy. I read the Foreclosure and Flippers books and started sending letters to people whose homes were up for sheriff's auction. I brought in an investor to buy the house and give my client some money to help him start over. The profit on this property will be about 40k. Not too bad for sending out a few letters.
