You may not know this but choosing the correct real estate team to negotiate the sale of your home is crucial if you plan is to avoid foreclosure.

If you are looking at buying a home in San Diego there is a good chance the one you like is a short sale. That said there are ways to go about handling the purchase of a short sale without losing your mind. The first step to buying a short sale is finding an agent that understands the process. Many agents have not been educated on the short sale process, which in turn can put a damper on the buying process.

Buying a short sale will test any buyer’s patience, as the process doesn’t happen overnight. Thankfully many banks are starting to integrate programs that speed up the process. Recently Bank of America launched their Equator program, which seems to have helped Bank of America push short sales through much faster. Each short sale is still a case by case situation, but for the most part banks are aware that short sales will continue at a growing rate for the next 2-3 years.

The first step to buying a short sale is finding out whether or not the other agent has an offer on his/her listing. This can be done by simply having your agent contact the listing agent and asking a few questions to qualify whether or not the home currently has an offer and whether the Realtor understands the short sale process. This is the key here. Working on a short sale with an uneducated agent or Realtor can be a disaster waiting to happen. At The Approval Experts we understand the entire process and our office has been involved in the closing of over 400 short sales throughout San Diego.

Once you or your agent have contacted the listing agent and qualified them on the potential purchase of the property it becomes a waiting game. If your offer is submitted to the bank for approval be aware that it’s rarely a simple approval. Most times the bank will counter offer the buyer, but most banks are well aware that a short sale will net them more money than a foreclosure, which is why we encourage our buyers to look very hard at buying a short sale. At the end of the day a short sale is excellent option and the potential of landing a great deal is definitely a possibility. Do your research and always ask questions. If you feel your agent or Realtor is qualified to handle the purchase or listing of a short sale it may be time to look elsewhere.
