Are you considering a Short Sale in the Avondale, Goodyear or Litchfield Park area but unsure how it will affect your credit? A short sale may be considered to be a derogatory mark on your credit even though credit bureaus do not show the word "short sale" on your credit report. It may say "paid in full for less than agreed" or similar category. Some clients have reported negative FICO score drops from 50 points to 130 points while the drop is 200 to 400 points after a foreclosure! Generally this credit score will remain on your credit report as a public record for 7 to 10 years.
All lenders report short sales differently and some do not report them to the credit bureaus at all. However a Foreclosure stays on your credit report for 7-10 years. If a prospective employer runs a credit check on you, your job application may be denied if you have a foreclosure on your record. In this job market, it's an important factor to consider.
Another thing to consider, Loan applications do not ask questions about a short sale. You may report that you sold your home. However with Foreclosure, you are required to answer the question: "Have you ever had a property foreclosed upon or given a deed-in-lieu thereof in the past 7 years." If the bank sees you have had a foreclosure, your loan most likely will be denied. If you lie, you may be subject to investigation by the FBI for fraud.
With so much to weigh out, it's important to speak to a Realtor that is a Short Sale Specialist and can answer your questions, identify your options and assist you in being proactive. Keith and Cheryl Krone have been Realtors since 1983; and for the last 3 years have specialized in Short Sales in Avondale, Buckeye, Goodyear and Litchfield Park.

To say you cover the Phoenix "metro" area isn't doing any favors to any of your clients. Phoenix is huge. To get from the western edge to the eastern edge of the "metro" area takes anywhere from 1 to 1 and 1/2 hours depending on where you're going. No one agent can possibly be familiar with local knowledge in every neighborhood in Phoenix. For instance, did you know that certain areas of Buckeye and Goodyear have an extra assessment on the houses for roads and infrastructure called a CFD? It is unlikely that an agent coming from Queen Creek for example would be familiar with these extra assessments and what areas they affect.
We specialize in what is known as the "southwest valley." This includes Goodyear, Avondale, Litchfield Park, Buckeye, and Avondale. We have detailed knowledge of all of the neighborhoods in these areas.
So, buyers and sellers should always do themselves a favor and work with a local agent, not a "jack of all trades, master of none."
