You Stole My Home!

12-23-11
Blair Ballin

A fellow Realtor sent me the following picture earlier today. I had to laugh because I think it is rather funny. I want to make it clear I am not making light of a person/family being foreclosed on or losing their home. That is an awful experience. I also want to make it clear I am not defending lending institutions.

I get that I don't know these people's stories but B of A stealing the home from them? Really? Here's what probably happened. They went late on their payment, possibly tried to do a short sale and it didn't get approved. Now, I could be way wrong but where in the note does it say anyone has to approve a short sale? Again, I am not saying just foreclose but they "stole" the home?

Here's the picture:

I'm not one of those fancy bloggers who can do creative text or other images. My text is above, and so is the picture. A story is a story.

I probably shouldn't even be blogging about this because it's just giving them more publicity but I haven't seen many people paint on their garage door "B of A just let me walk away from $147,000 in debt and did a short sale." Okay, maybe that's a tad long but you get the point.

Here's the thing. If you think you don't want to stay in your home call a Realtor (me)! Call me before you stop making your payments. Someone "stealing" your home doesn't need to be the end result.
