If you are reading this, you have probably run across some hard times. Please remember this...Bad things happen to good people,Please know that you are not alone. It is estimated that more than a million homeowners will be foreclosed before this sub-prime catastrophe endsThe hardest step to make is to REALIZE that you simply need help.The quality of the representation you seek will make a difference in the end.
If you are facing foreclosure, more than likely you will be contacted by someone wanting to assist or help you out of your situation. You've most likely been flooded with a flurry of letters and phone calls from "experts" giving you a bunch of promises and half-truths. I know some of these companies or individuals could mean well but most often are simply preying on desperate homeowners for their own benefit.
There are MANY times when a short sale is possible at the last minute, even when a foreclosure date has been set by the court.
Take the first step in the RIGHT DIRECTION - Educate yourself by reading through this valuable information. Find out your options, and make an educated decision about your home, your future, and your credit.
Nevada Foreclosure Process - Steps, Timeframes and Resources The Foreclosure Process in the state of Nevada typically takes about 4 to 6 months from the time the Notice of Default is filed to the final Eviction of the homeowner.
1. Notice of Default (Day 1) starts the foreclosure process - it is prepared, recorded, mailed, posted, published and a copy sent to all parties (owner, all lenders, IRS, local, state, and federal tax agencies) who have an interest in the property.
2. Reinstatement Period (Day 2-36) - starts on the first day the notice of default is recorded. This is a 35 day period in which the homeowner can reinstate the loan by making any back payments, foreclosure fees and other allowable expenses.
3. Redemption Period (Day 37-90 / months 2-3) - starts on day 36 from the recorded date of the Notice of Default. Now the homeowner is now responsible for paying the remaining loan balance along with all foreclosure fees and other allowable expenses. It should also be noted that approximately 10 days before the end of the redemption period, the trustee will notify the lender for permission to prepare the Notice of Trustee Sale for publication.
4. Publication Period (month 4) means the Notice of Sale must be published once a week for three consecutive weeks (21 days) prior to the Trustee Sale.
5. Trustee Sale (121+ days from NOD) is the final step in the foreclosure process and it is extremely important to remember the homeowner has no right of redemption after the sale is finalized. If there is a successful bidder at the sale, the new owner will purchase the property in "as is" condition with no warranties. If there are no bidders at the sale, the lender becomes the sole owner as an REO (Real Estate Owned).
6. Eviction process starts after the Trustee Sale is finalized. The eviction process is initiated by posting a 3 day Notice to Quit on the property. If there is no response, the new owner will file a 5 day Eviction Notice with the court. If there is no response by 5pm on the 5th day, the Constable will evict the resident.
Can I afford a foreclosure on my record?
A short sale will be less damaging to your credit score than a
foreclosure. Just try to have a normal life with a foreclosure on your
record. .. it's almost impossible to rent, finance a car, future job
applications . .simply put, you will be paying trough the nose next
time you want to finance a car. Sure they will give you a loan to buy
one but, you will be paying astronomical interest rates and monthly payments.
The bank will not deny a SHORT SALE because of how much money they will be losing. . they will always consider a short sale based on the ACTUAL value of the property!
What is a Short Sale?
A short sale is when a homeowner facing foreclosure sells his or her
property for less than what is owed to the mortgage lender. The sale
has to be approved by the lender.
Why home owners request a Short Sale
"I can't make my payments anymore" (interest rates rise, job loss, sickness, divorce, etc) "My home can not be refinanced" perhaps the appraisal for the refinance is below what you need to refinance the entire loan Medical
Documents reviewed during the Short Sale process?
Current copy of mortgage statement from all lenders Current copy of all delinquency notices. Hardship Letter Property & Borrowers Information Financial statement Third-party authorization form (the "third party" would be your real estate agent) Most recent 2-month pay stubs Most recent 2-month bank statements Most recent 2 years tax returns if self employed we will need 6 months P & L statement Most recent HOA statement showing current or past due amount (if applicable)
Many times the bank will only deal with an authorized third party (your real estate agent) to agree to a short sale. They want to work with experienced professionals who know the correct procedures and jargon, can we blame them? If you have been turned down for a short sale in the past contact us. Many, many, many times a second attempt made by an experienced licensed agent, with the correct documentation and procedures, the short sale will be accepted!
Yes, the government wants to help you after all . . . it's about time!
