My home is awaiting bank approval of a short sale.

February 8th, 2010 by Jarad S.

Question: If I declare bankruptcy now with regard to my other debts, will it prevent the short sale from going through?

Answer: -No.  Bankruptcy only postpones an auction or short sale which buys you more time.  In fact, many short sale investors will use bankruptcy as an option if they need to buy more time so it doesn’t go to auction, as long as it’s in the best interest of the homeowner.

Jarad, I am writting to you two weeks after I purchased your e-book and one week three days after I bought a property based on your negotiation skills. I know it was not sheer luck. I just wanted to drop a message and let you know that three days after the purchase, I sold the property (still in escrow) for a $40,000 profit. I must thank you for your e-book.
Your excited student

The overall content of your foreclosure e books is better than information found in courses costing much, much more and easier for a novice to understand.
