Wells Fargo and Chase Approve Hammock Bay Short Sale, Freeport Florida
This home at 213 Concert Court in Hammock Bay, Freeport Florida, has been approved to close as a short sale.
Purchase Price: $170,000 appr
Wells Fargo mortgage balance: $230,000 appr
Chase mortgage balance: $60,000 appr
Factors: Wells Fargo delayed their approval process until the junior lien, Chase issued their own approval. Chase delayed their approval due to reorganizing internal departments. Chase also got aggressive with a settlement demand from the seller, which took time to negotiate.
Reminder: Consider keeping your second mortgage or equity line current if you are doing a short sale. If you don’t, your file may be sent to a debt collection agency, or to the lender’s charge-off department. You can still do a short sale, but the creditor may not be as lenient.
If you are trying to avoid foreclosure, consult an attorney and an experienced Freeport Florida short sale agent.
