Especialista En Venta Corta: Preguntas Mas Frecuentes Venta Corta (Short Sale)

PREGUNTAS MAS FRECUENTES SOBRE VENTA CORTA


¿Que significa una VENTA CORTA o Pre Foreclosure Sale?

Una Venta Corta es cuando un prestamista acepta un descuento en una hipoteca para evitar una subasta o una bancarrota posible de la ejecución de una hipoteca. Mientras la propiedad está en transmite de compra, la aprobación del prestamista del contrato y de los términos llega a ser necesaria como deben aprobar la propiedad descontada. Por ejemplo...un dueño de una casa tiene una hipoteca existente de $300.000. El comprador escribe una oferta de $220.000, esta oferta es aceptada como pago completo del préstamo. Esto es una Venta Corta .

Es mejor hacer una Venta Corta cuando la propiedad está en el estado de la PRE-ejecución de una hipoteca porque a los bancos no les conviene tener exceso de inventario de préstamos y menos cuando son, préstamos negativos en sus libros.

¿Qué sucede al crédito del vendedor cuando hace una Venta Corta ?

Lo qué sucede típicamente es que en el informe de crédito el préstamo demostrará haber sido “pagado”. Sin embargo, habrá una notación que indique “préstamo pagado a menos del valor original” o algo por estas líneas. Es más favorable que un dueño de una casa entre a Venta Corta que tener una ejecución de una hipoteca en su informe de crédito.

¿Puede un dueño beneficiarse de una Venta Corta ?

El vendedor no puede beneficiarse (con dinero) de una Venta Corta de la PRE-ejecución de una hipoteca.

¿Cómo pueden afectar las bancarrotas en las posibilidades de hacer una Venta Corta ?

La mayoría de prestamistas de hipotecas no considerarán una Venta Corta si el dueño de una casa está en bancarrota porque negociar una rentabilidad de Venta Corta es considera una actividad de colección. Las actividades de colección se prohíben durante una bancarrota.

¿Cuando un dueño de propiedad ya esta en el proceso de la PRE-ejecución de una hipoteca, cuando es lo mas tarde que se puede comenzar una Venta Corta o el proceso de reducir el préstamo original que se debe en la hipoteca?

Estando en el proceso de PRE-ejecución permita por lo menos 90 días para que se efectúe una hipoteca aprobada y pueda poner la propiedad en Venta Corta .

*Siempre consulte con su contador acerca de posibles responsabilidades de impuestos

Miami Foreclosures: There Are Plenty Of Foreclosure Opportunities In Miami.

Home Foreclosures in Miami....a Great Opportunity

In today's real estate market FORECLOSED HOMES are a great investment opportunity, and there are many of them on the market right now. While the rise in foreclosures has a negative impact for many, foreclosures have definitely spurred the real estate investment community. Our Miami Foreclosure Team will guide you through the process of purchasing foreclosed property as a path to profit.

Foreclosure Basics

A foreclosure is usually a home that is owned by the bank due to the previous owners defaulting on their mortgage. Typically, the bank will try to sell the home as quickly as possible, sometimes through a public auction. To secure a quick sale of the foreclosure, the bank will often sell at a low starting price as well ... and this is what gets investors excited about buying foreclosure properties in the first place.

The Basic Process

1. Get Your Pre-Qualification in Order

Banks want to make sure that when they get an offer on a property that it is coming from a qualified buyer. They want to go straight to closing and not have to wait and see if the buyer qualifies. They need to sell and move on to the next headache. Pre-Qualification letters are now required by all banks along with any offers. Many also require proof of funds on cash offers. Securing a Pre-Qualification letter is rather simple. Your loan officer or Mortgage Broker will need to confirm your income and run a credit report analyze your debt to income ratio and will provide you with loan amount that you Pre-Qualify for.

2. Finding Foreclosures in Your Area

Before you can buy a foreclosed property, you have to find a Licensed Realtor who has a continuous stream of foreclosures available. You need to start filtering through the inventory and identify the price ranges being offered in the different communities. Good deals go quickly....sometimes in just a couple of days. You need to work closely with a knowledgeable Realtor or develop the skill to quickly identify a great value when you see one.

3. Considering the Upside, But Also the Downside

Like any other type of investment, buying foreclosure properties carries a certain level of risk. If you buy a foreclosed property that later proves hard to sell, you will be stuck with a mortgage payment longer than you want. If renting the property generates a stream of income that covers your mortgage payment, property taxes and all other costs involved in maintaining the home, you then can hold on to the property for a longer period awaiting a recovery of the real estate market.

4. Making Your Offer on A Home and Not a Money Pit

Working with a knowledgeable Realtor is crucial while making your offer. You want to make sure that you are protected with inspection periods and plenty of outs on the deal if the home doesn’t seem to be what it appeared to be. You also want to make sure that you negotiate any fees, Title Policies or seller contributions wherever possible. Remember that hiring a Realtor to represent you during your purchase doe not cost you the buyer anything. The Realtor fee is paid by the Seller.
