Florida Sun & Surf Realty Group is there for consumers needing to execute a short sale Port Saint Lucie, Florida

Need to short sell your home?

Don't know what a short sale is? A short sale is when the amount of the outstanding loans are greater than the value of the home. This can be attributed to many causes, but commonly is a result of a rapidly declining real estate market.

Short sales can be a way for homeowners to avoid foreclosure and pay off their loan with the lender by settling.


What steps do I take in a short sale?

First, get an idea of the true market value of your property. A good REALTOR®, like those at Florida Sun & Surf Realty Group, will be able to give you a reasonable idea of what your property would probably sell for based on prior sales of similar houses in the area. Be cautious of websites where a computer estimates your property's market value since they may not have complete information or know important things like neighborhood trends and current listings.

When it's time to sell your house, Florida Sun & Surf Realty Group is ready. Take advantage of our experience and knowledge of the local real estate market in Port Saint Lucie to sell your home quickly. Contact us today.

Next, don't forget about your closing costs. The qualified real estate professionals at Florida Sun & Surf Realty Group will account for fees such as title report, appraisal, escrow, property taxes, and agent commissions to tally your final costs upon closing.

Finally, get in touch with your lender and let them know of the situation. They may even have a particular department that manages short sales. Ask about their exact procedures. Some lenders will be more willing to work with you than others. They may be able to lessen your loan principal or make other arrangements. Your lender will have to give approval for the final sale.
