A short sale is where the owner of the property is asking the bank to forgive the difference on what is owed and the purchase price a buyer is willing to pay for the property. There are many advantages to a short sale but a buyer must be aware of all the nuances that come with buying a short sale. First, a short sale takes time to negotiate. Buyers looking for a quick close should be educated on the time it takes to submit a short sale packet to the bank and the time it takes for it to be approved. A San Clemente Short Sale like the home being featured here will take time since the home is at the very beginning stages of the short sale process.

There are many steps a bank must take in order to grant approval including an appraisal on the home, review of the seller’s hardship and the buyers qualification to buy the home. If the purchase price is close to market value often times the bank will approve the short sale. It’s important to keep in mind that short sales do get turned down for a variety of issues and can be a very frustrating process. Consulting with a local Realtor is the key to learning the advantages and disadvantages of buying a short sale.
