What Is A Short Sale?

A short sale occurs when a negotiation is entered into with the homeowner’s mortgage company (or companies) to accept less than the full balance of the loan at closing. A buyer closes on the property, and the property is then ‘sold short’ of the total value of the mortgage.

How Do I Know If I Qualify For A Short Sale in Maryland?

For Maryland homeowners to qualify for a short sale, they must have the following circumstances:

• Financial Hardship – There is a situation causing you to have trouble affording your mortgage.

• Monthly Income Shortfall – In other words: “You have more month than money.” A lender will want to see that you cannot afford, or soon will not be able to afford your mortgage.

• Insolvency – The lender will want to see that you do not have significant liquid assets that would allow you to pay down your mortgage.

This seems simple enough, but it is a complicated process that takes the expertise of qualified short sale professionals. I am a Maryland certified short sale specialist and am ready to identify all possible options and assist in the quick execution of your short sale transaction.
