  • SHORT SALE NEWS - Government Program

    Are You Considering a Naperville Short Sale? Would you like to walk away with a little money in your pocket?

    The Government has announced a New Program to Facilitate Short Sales and avoid Foreclosures. It benefits the homeowner as well as the lien holders. Hopefully this will accelerate the process, because short sales are notorious for taking weeks and/or months to close when a buyer is found. Do you qualify as a homeowner for $1500 from the government? Read the guidelines below:

    Government Announces Short Sales Guidelines
    The U.S. Treasury Department announced new guidelines this week designed to make short sales go more smoothly.

    To qualify under these new guidelines:

    • The property must be the home owner’s principal residence.
    • The home owner must be delinquent on the mortgage or close to defaulting.
    • The loan must have been made before Jan. 1, 2009, and be for less than $729,750.
    • The borrowers’ total monthly mortgage payment must exceed 31 percent of their before-tax income.


    Under the plan, borrowers will receive $1,500 from the government for selling homes for less than the amount of their mortgages. Mortgage-servicing companies will get $1,000 for each completed short sale. Second-mortgage holders can receive up to $3,000 of the sales proceeds in exchange for releasing their liens. Investors who hold the first mortgage can collect up to $1,000 from the government for allowing the payments.

    Borrowers who complete a short sale under the program must be "fully released" from future liability for the debt, according to the guidelines.

    IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING A SHORT SALE TO AVOID FORECLOSURE, Contact me: Diann Carey 815-761-7918  or diann.carey@bairdwarner.com to take advantage of this program.

  • Advantages & Disadvantages of Buying Napervile Foreclosures & Naperville Short Sales

    Naperville Foreclosures & Short Sales can offer big benefits to buyers in the current market conditions, but it's not all a bed of roses.  The up-side of buying Foreclosures/Short Sales is pretty obvious "PRICE".  There is definitely a "down side" however.  Let me share a few that come to mind immediately: Both Foreclosures and Short sales are usually sold in "as is" condition. Foreclosured properties are often in distressed condition as well. The banks usually "winterize" the homes, which means the utilities are turned off. This makes buyers home inspections more challenging. They take more time to inspect, because the utility bills must be brought up-to-date, utilities must be turned on for inspection at buyers expense, and then after inspection, buyer is sometimes responsible to have the home re-winterized. All in all, its a time consuming and complicated procedure. Foreclosures will have a quicker response time to contract offers than short sales which is a definite advantage.  However, the banks will transfer much of the traditional seller's closing costs to the buyer at settlement, so buyers of foreclosed homes must keep that in mind when negotiating purchase price.  When purchasing Short Sale properties, the utilities will usually still be turned on, which makes it a little easier for inspection. Thats a big advantage. A disadvantage however is that decisions/response to contract offers can take weeks/months to receive. During the time that buyers are waiting for a response, the home will frequently continue to be marketed. If a better offer comes in during this period before acceptance, the Bank will take the best offer and reject the other, even if you have been waiting for weeks. Every foreclosure & short sale is different. There is no Rule to follow. Each bank has it's own procedures. But, as you can see there are many factors to consider in purchasing foreclosures and short sales.  Contact an experienced real estate agent to assist you when considering a bank owned or short sale property. 

     Contact me if you have any questions or if you would like to see available properties(in all areas).

  • What are the basic differences between REO properties and Short Sale properties?

    What are the basic differences between REO properties and Short Sale properties?

     Naperville REO Properties are owned by a lending institution, typically a bank. REO is an acronym for  "Real Estate Owned"  Sometimes REO Properties are referred to as "Bank Owned Homes" as well.  Naperville REO properties have been foreclosed and the home owner is completely out of the picture, the home is vacant and often utilities are shut off.  Naperville REO properties are being sold by a Realtor contracted by the bank.  The banks almost always sell all properties "as is".  Often the homes are distressed properties.

    A Naperville Short Sale  is a pre-foreclosure sale when the home owner (borrower) is still in the picture but owes more than the house is worth  In this case the lender is involved because the lender has to agree to the sale price and the loss that they are going to take.  There may be some room for inspections and contingencies in the short sale scenario but the bank still has the last word and to get a deal done a buyer must be willing to forgo certain issues. Naperville Short Sales can take a considerable amount of time to purchase. Sometimes there are multiple banks involved and all have to agree to the terms.

    Choose a Naperville Real Estate who has experience or knowledge in distressed property can be incredibly useful.  These real estate deals are complicated and take knowledge to complete.
