So basically, a potential buyer can make an offer on the home for thousands less than what is currently owed, and get it accepted by the bank! This is common in a declining housing market and can be a win-win for both the bank and the homeowner. Home sellers should consider a &lt;strong&gt;Short Sale in Arizona&lt;/strong&gt; when the value of their home is LESS than the amount of their outstanding loans. For example, if your home is worth $225,000 but you have a loan of $250,000 then a short sale is a consideration. Normally a bank will begin to look at the short sale option only if the homeowner is behind on payments and begins to face foreclosure, but not always. In rare instances, the bank will still accept a short sale if the mortgage payments are current. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The process to end up choosing an &lt;strong&gt;Arizona Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt; option typically works like this:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The homeowner(s) begin to miss payments &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The lender(s) try to arrange a repayment plan &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The repayment plan fails or is never attempted and the bank mentions a short sale &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;ARIZONA SHORT SALE HELP!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, if you do not have to sell your home, you could wait out the market and hope for a turnaround in real estate values. However, if you do have to sell your home you basically have three options. First, you can bring cash to the table. In today's declining real estate market and using the example above, you would sell your home for $225,000 and pay another $25,000 to the lender out of your pocket to pay off the loan on your property. This does not include other selling costs such as closing costs, real estate commissions, taxes etc. Second, you could let the home go into foreclosure. The lender will go through the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/arizonaprocess.htm"&gt;Arizona Foreclosure Process&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, force you out of your home and then auction it off to the highest bidder at a foreclosure or Trustee's auction. The third and best option is to pursue a short sale.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;LET US APPLY FOR THE JOB!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/realestateshortsale.htm"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;http://www.sellquickforcash.com/realestateshortsale.htm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; has a team of highly trained short sale experts who have established fantastic relationships with most banks.

SellQuickForCash.com Educates You On These Threats So You Can Protect Your Family!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The possibility of losing your home to foreclosure can be terrifying. The reality that scam artists are preying on the vulnerability of desperate homeowners is equally frightening. Many so-called &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure rescue companies&lt;/strong&gt; or foreclosure assistance firms claim they can help you save your home. Some are brazen enough to offer a money-back guarantee. Unfortunately, once most of these foreclosure fraudsters take your money, they leave you much the worse for wear.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fraudulent foreclosure “rescue” professionals use half truths and outright lies to sell services that promise relief and then fail to deliver. Their goal is to make a quick profit through fees or mortgage payments they collect from you, but do not pass on to the lender. Sometimes, they assume ownership of your property by deceiving you, the homeowner. Then, when it’s too late to save your home, they take the property or siphon off the equity. You’ve lost your home to foreclosure despite your best intentions.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you think you may be facing foreclosure, &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; wants you to know how to recognize a foreclosure rescue scam. And even if the foreclosure process has already begun, &lt;strong&gt;SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt; want you to know that legitimate options are available to help you save your home.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Following Is Taken From FTC.Gov Facts For Consumers Page:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How the Scams Work&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2008/04/foresolutions.shtm"&gt;Foreclosure rescue firms&lt;/a&gt; use a variety of tactics to find homeowners in distress: Some sift through public foreclosure notices in newspapers and on the Internet or through public files at local government offices, and then send personalized letters to homeowners. Others take a broader approach through ads on the Internet, on television, or in the newspaper, posters on telephone poles, median strips and at bus stops, or flyers or business cards at your front door.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The scam artists use simple and straight-forward messages, like:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;“&lt;strong&gt;Stop Foreclosure Now&lt;/strong&gt;!” &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;“We guarantee to stop your foreclosure.” &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;“Keep Your Home. We know your home is scheduled to be sold. No Problem!”&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;“We have special relationships within many banks that can speed up case approvals.”&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;“We Can Save Your Home. Guaranteed. Free Consultation”&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;“&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/stopforeclosure.htm"&gt;We Stop Foreclosures&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; everyday. Our team of professionals can stop yours this week!” &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Once they have your attention, they use a variety of tactics to get your money:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Phony Counseling or Phantom Help&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The scam artist tells you that he can negotiate a deal with your lender to save your house if you pay a fee first. You may be told not to contact your lender, lawyer, or credit counselor, and to let the scam artist handle all the details. Once you pay the fee, the scam artist takes off with your money.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes, the scam artist insists that you make all mortgage payments directly to him while he negotiates with the lender. In this instance, the scammer may collect a few months of payments before disappearing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bait-and-Switch&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You think you’re signing documents for a new loan to make your existing mortgage current. This is a trick: you’ve signed documents that surrender the title of your house to the &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure scam&lt;/strong&gt; artist in exchange for a “rescue” loan.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rent-to-Buy Scheme&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You’re told to surrender the title as part of a deal that allows you to remain in your home as a renter, and to buy it back during the next few years. You may be told that surrendering the title will permit a borrower with a better credit rating to secure new financing – and prevent the loss of the home. But the terms of these deals usually are so burdensome that buying back your home becomes impossible. You lose the home, and the scam artist walks off with all or most of your home’s equity. Worse yet, when the new borrower defaults on the loan, you’re evicted.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a variation, the &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure scam&lt;/strong&gt; artist raises the rent over time to the point that the former homeowner can’t afford it. After missing several rent payments, the renter – the former homeowner – is evicted, leaving the “rescuer” free to sell the house.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a similar equity-skimming situation, the &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure scam&lt;/strong&gt; artist offers to find a buyer for your home, but only if you sign over the deed and move out. The scam artist promises to pay you a portion of the profit when the home sells. Once you transfer the deed, the scam artist simply rents out the home and pockets the proceeds while your lender proceeds with the foreclosure. In the end, you lose your home – and you’re still responsible for the unpaid mortgage. That’s because transferring the deed does nothing to transfer your mortgage obligation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fraudulent foreclosure “rescue” professionals use half truths and outright lies to sell services that promise relief and then fail to deliver.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bankruptcy Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure scam&lt;/strong&gt; artist may promise to negotiate with your lender or to get refinancing on your behalf if you pay a fee up front. Instead of contacting your lender or refinancing your loan, though, the scam artist pockets the fee and files a bankruptcy case in your name – sometimes without your knowledge.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bankruptcy filing often stops a home foreclosure, but only temporarily. What’s more, the bankruptcy process is complicated, expensive, and unforgiving. For example, if you fail to attend the first meeting with the creditors, the bankruptcy judge will dismiss the case and the foreclosure proceedings will continue.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If this happens, you could lose the money you paid to the &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure scam&lt;/strong&gt; artist as well as your home. Worse yet, a bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years, and can make it difficult to obtain credit, buy a home, get life insurance, or sometimes get a job.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Why Should You Trust SellQuickforCash.com?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-We Put Everything In Writting&lt;br /&gt;-We Have Many Referrals From Past Clients&lt;br /&gt;-We Do Not Charge Any Fees To Stop Foreclosure&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bbbonline.org/cks.asp?id=108050617047403"&gt;-We Are A Member In Good Standing With The BBB&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-We Do Not Charge Any Fees To Purchase Your Home&lt;br /&gt;-We Spend The Time To Educate You On Your Options&lt;br /&gt;-We Close Every Deal Through An Independant Third Party Title Company&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; has the resources and team in place to handle any housing / financial situation.

What They &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Say; What They Leave Out!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;So we all see those ads from Ditech.com or Countrywide.com that pitch low fixed rates, low monthly paymenst, or mortgage rates at 30 year lows. When we talk with homeowners that are &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/stopforeclosure.htm"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Facing Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; we ask them why they are in the situation they are currently in. The majority of them explain to us that their mortgage lender placed them into a bad, adjustable rate loan, a loan with a prepayment penalty, or had them maximize a &lt;a href="http://www.realestatewebmasters.com/glossary/H/HELOC"&gt;HELOC&lt;/a&gt; (Home Equity Line Of Credit). Deceptive advertising got you in the door, and an unregulated loan officer placed you into a bad loan. Why we can only cross our fingers and hope that the mortgage industry becomes regulated, we can be proactive and unveil the mystery behind some of these deceptive mortgage ads! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The following is from the FTC.Gov website concerning mortgage advertising.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;If you’re looking for a mortgage to buy a home or refinance an existing loan, you may see or hear ads with offers of low rates or payments. Whether you see them on the Internet, on television or in the paper, or whether they come by fax or mail, some of these ads look like they’re from your mortgage company or a government agency. Regardless of where you see the ads, remember that while the offers are tempting, some are terribly flawed: they don’t disclose the true terms of the deal as the law requires.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Federal Trade Commission, the nation’s consumer protection agency, says that when you’re shopping for a home loan, it’s important to understand all the terms and conditions of a proposed loan. Start with what is in the ad itself. Read what’s between the lines as well as what’s in front of your eyes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;What The Ads Say&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To help you recognize an offer that may be less than complete, the FTC wants you to know the buzz words that should trigger follow-up questions, as well as information to insist on after you’ve read an ad.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Low “Fixed” Rate:&lt;/strong&gt; Ads that tout a “fixed” rate may not tell you how long it will be “fixed.” The rate may be fixed for an introductory period only, and that can be as short as 30 days. When you shop for a mortgage, you need to know when and how your rate, and payments, can change. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Very Low Rates:&lt;/strong&gt; Are the ads talking about a “payment” rate or the interest rate? This important detail may be buried in the fine print, if it’s there at all. The interest rate is the rate used to calculate the amount of interest you will owe the lender each month. The payment rate is the rate used to calculate the amount of the payment you are obligated to make each month. Some offers advertise a low payment rate without telling you that it applies only during an introductory period. What’s more, if the payment rate is less than the interest rate, you won’t be covering the interest due. This is called “negative amortization.” It means that your loan balance is actually increasing because you’re not paying all the interest that comes due, and the lender is adding the unpaid interest to the balance you owe.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Very Low Payment Amounts:&lt;/strong&gt; Ads quoting a very low payment amount probably aren’t telling the whole story. For example, the offer might be for an Interest Only (I/O) loan, where you pay only the amount of interest accrued each month. While the low payment amount may be tempting, eventually, you will have to pay off the principal. Your payment may go up after an introductory period, so that you would be paying down some of the principal – or you may end up owing a “balloon” payment, a lump sum usually due at the end of a loan. You must come up with the money when a balloon payment is due. If you can’t, you may need another loan, which, in turn, means new closing costs, and potentially points and fees. And if housing prices are falling, you might not be able to refinance to lower your payments.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mortgage rates near 30-year lows!&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Rates as low as 1%!&lt;/strong&gt; You are paying too much! Who doesn’t want to reduce their mortgage payments? Loan amount $300,000 - pay only $900 per month!: Ads with “teaser” short term rates or payments like these don’t often disclose that a rate or payment is for a very short introductory period. If you don’t nail down the details in advance about your rates and payments for every month of the life of your loan, expect payment shock when the rate and payment increase dramatically.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Important Notice From Your Mortgage Company. Open Immediately - Important Financial Information Enclosed. Please do not discard - account information enclosed: Appearances can be deceiving. Mailers that have information about your mortgage and your lender may not be from your lender at all, but rather from another company that wants your business. Companies can legally get your information from public records. Before you respond to any offer, review it carefully to make sure you know who you’re dealing with.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are eligible to take part in an exclusive interest rate reduction program. This financial institution has been licensed to negotiate your existing adjustable mortgage to a new fixed rate mortgage. You must contact us immediately regarding this notice. Some businesses use official-looking stamps, envelopes, forms, and references to make you think their offer is from a government agency or program. If you’re concerned about a mailing you’ve received, contact the government agency mentioned in the letter. If it’s a legitimate agency – and not one that just sounds like a government agency – you’ll find the phone number in the Blue Pages of your telephone directory.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;What the Ads Don’t Say&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The APR:&lt;/strong&gt; The Annual Percentage Rate is a critical factor in comparing mortgage offers from different lenders. It is the total cost of the credit expressed as a yearly interest rate. This rate is different than the simple interest rate on your loan note, because the APR includes all costs of the credit such as points and processing fees. Knowing the APR makes it easier to compare “apples to apples” when considering mortgage offers. Look for the APR for your loan. The amount may not be in the ad at all; it may be hidden in the fine print, or it may be available deep within a website after multiple clicks.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Important Payment Information:&lt;/strong&gt; It’s hard to know what you don’t know, and often, some of the most important information you need isn’t in the ad, is hidden in the fine print, or is available only at a website after many clicks. To make an informed judgment about any mortgage offer, you need to know – or ask:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;What will the monthly payment be for every month of the loan, and could it increase?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;When could it increase?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;What would your new payment be?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Could your monthly payment increase more than once?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Does the monthly payment include an escrow amount to pay for your property taxes and homeowners insurance, or must you pay these costs on your own?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;If you have to pay on your own, ask your lender for an estimate so you can budget accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;What is the term of the loan (for example, 15 years? 30 years?)? How many payments will you have to make?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Would the loan be paid off at the end or would you still owe a “balloon” payment? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Will you have to pay prepayment penalties to refinance and pay off the loan early? If so, how much, and when would they apply?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;If the loan has an introductory or teaser rate, can you refinance, without penalties, before the rate resets and your payment increases? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/uploaded_images/SQFC_WebsiteGreen---Medium-774089.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;At &lt;strong&gt;Sell Quick For Cash Dot Com&lt;/strong&gt;, we want to take a proactive approach to solving Arizona's housing problem.

Is your home loan amount equal to or higher than your current home value? Are you behind on payments, or realize that you can no longer afford your home? If this is your situation, SellQuickForCash.com can help!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Selling a home that has a loan higher than it's worth is extremely difficult, if not impossible. Who would want to pay above the true value of a home? Usually when a homeowner owes more than the home's current market value and can no longer afford the home, they are left with two choices: 1. Lose the home to &lt;strong&gt;Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt; due to no one wanting to buy an overpriced home; 2. Negotiate an &lt;strong&gt;Arizona Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt; with the bank to ensure the home sells before foreclosure. Obviously no homeowner wants to lose their home to foreclosure. People who let their home go to foreclosure typically destroy their credit for 7 years during which time, it is nearly impossible to purchase another house. There is a better way to exit from your financial burden...a &lt;a title="SellQuickForCash Real Estate Short Sale" href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/realestateshortsale.htm" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Real Estate Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/uploaded_images/Short-Sale-Quote-731350.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So What Is A Short Sale?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A &lt;strong&gt;Real Estate Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt; is when the bank is willing to take a lesser amount of your home's loan in order to sell your home and &lt;a title="Stop Foreclosure Fast" href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/stopforeclosure.htm" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stop Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Basically, our company goes in and negotiates with your lender to accept a discounted sales price due to your financial situation, as well as the current market conditions.For example: Your home's current market value is $200,000 You loan amount for your home is $225,000. No one will want to buy your home for $225,000 because the real value is $200,000. The bank then realizes they must lower the amount owed to $175,000 (this number varies) so the home can sell. This is just a simple example and all the numbers will vary from deal to deal.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So why Is A Real Estate Short Sale Better Than A Foreclosure?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A &lt;strong&gt;Real Estate Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt; is a win/win solution for everyone. Obviously the homeowner does not want a foreclosure on their record. The bank definitely does not want to take the home back through foreclosure due to the large expenses and long waiting period. So if the homeowner can complete a &lt;strong&gt;short sale&lt;/strong&gt;, they will have successfully sold their home without losing the home through foreclosure, thus saving their credit. And the bank will be satisfied due to not having to foreclose on the home saving time and money.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plus, the time it takes to rebound from a &lt;strong&gt;Real Estate &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_sale_(real_estate)" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; is much shorter than the time it takes with a &lt;strong&gt;Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt;! Furthermore, it shows your character! You are attempting to repay the loan that you took out which gives you peace of mind.Homeowners desiring to do a short sale usually must show to the bank:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Financial hardship &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Loss of job &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Divorce &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Medical conditions or large medical bills &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Behind on payments &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Job Transfer&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Typical Beginings Of A&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Real Estate Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;The homeowner(s) begin to miss payments &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The lender(s) try to arrange a repayment plan &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The repayment plan fails or is never attempted and the bank mentions a &lt;strong&gt;short sale&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Requirements for a Real Estate Short Sale are:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;A proven financial hardship &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Behind on payments (In most circumstances) &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;You owe as much or more than your home is currently worthThe homeowner requests a short sale packet from their lender(s) &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The bank notifies the homeowner(s) that they can't turn in the short sale packet until they have a signed purchase contract &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The homeowner(s) decide to contact &lt;strong&gt;SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;WWW.SELLQUICKFORCASH.COM specializes in negotiating short sales for Arizona homeowners.

Many people use bankruptcy as a scare tactic. There are several different “chapters” of bankruptcy. Some are work-out others are wipe-out, but here is the general idea. When someone files bankruptcy it’s almost like someone builds a temporary “bullet-proof” barrier around the house. No one can touch you! However, you are not free of all responsibility and most people do not understand that. We are not bankruptcy attorneys, but you need to know the difference between a &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapter_7,_Title_11,_United_States_Code"&gt;Chapter 7&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; and a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapter_13,_Title_11,_United_States_Code"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapter 13&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/a&gt;bankruptcy so you know what happens. Like we mentioned earlier, some bankruptcies are “work out” others are “wipe out”. The two that we will focus on are the Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. These are the most common in your situation. Chapter 7 is the “wipe out” and Chapter 13 is the “work out”. Bankruptcy is a federal court action designed to help individuals repays their debts or eliminate their debts depending on their circumstances. Chapter 13 bankruptcies are designed to reorganize debts in an effort to repay all debt. Chapter 7 bankruptcies are geared more towards liquidation of assets. Both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 immediately stop the foreclosure process and any creditors from taking further action against you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How A Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Works:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;When someone files a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, all assets and creditor collections are technically frozen which is called an automatic stay. The person filing bankruptcy cannot buy or sell anything, nor can they give away their property. If they try to sell their home, the court could order the receiving party to return it to the custody of the court appointed Trustee. Unsecured debts such as credit cards, unsecured loans, etc. are typically eliminated, although you should confer with your attorney on the rules regarding this. Then the trustee or attorney who represents the court and the creditors will look at all the assets (house, car, furniture, and equipment) a thing of value and decide what must be liquidated to pay some of the debt that was wiped out. The statute provides that there are some minimal assets a person filing bankruptcy may keep. If the homeowners are involved in a pending foreclosure, a Chapter 7 will stop the foreclosure process temporarily. Usually, your lender will request the court appointed Trustee to release the property from the automatic stay so they may continue with the foreclosure process. Once the property has been released from the bankruptcy, the foreclosure process starts up again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Is a Little Different:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;When someone files a Chapter 13, they usually keep their assets and repay their debts in a debt consolidation plan. Whatever amount is agreed upon has to be paid to the Bankruptcy Court every month for the next 3-5 years. The homeowner usually keeps their house, car, and other assets. The homeowner is required to stay current with the mortgage payments and pays the amount agreed upon. If any payments are missed, the trustee will dismiss the bankruptcy and the foreclosure process will begin again. Bankruptcy is usually a last resort and should not be used to stop foreclosure unless you have no other option or else you need the protection of a bankruptcy due to other circumstances. If you feel this may be your best option, please seek legal advice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bottom Line:&lt;/strong&gt; To take advantage of this solution you should consult an experienced bankruptcy attorney. We are not in the business of giving legal advice and in no way are we bankruptcy experts. This information is deemed reliable but no guarantees or warrantees are expressed or implied!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Some Commonly Asked Questions About Bankruptcy &amp;amp; Foreclosure:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What exactly is bankruptcy?&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Bankruptcy is a federal court process designed to help people eliminate their debts or repay them under the protection of the bankruptcy court. Bankruptcies can generally be described as "liquidation" or "reorganization."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Will filing for bankruptcy protect me from creditors' efforts to collect what I owe?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;When you file bankruptcy, an "automatic stay" goes into effect. The automatic stay prohibits most creditors from taking any action to collect the debts you owe them unless the bankruptcy court lifts the stay and lets the creditor proceed with collections.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In &lt;a href="http://www.clarklawaz.com/PracticeAreas/Chapter-7-Bankruptcy.asp"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapter 7 bankruptcy&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, you ask the bankruptcy court to discharge most of the debts you owe. In exchange for this discharge, the bankruptcy trustee can take any property you own that is not exempt from collection, sell it, and distribute the proceeds to your creditors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In &lt;a href="http://www.clarklawaz.com/PracticeAreas/Chapter-13-Bankruptcy.asp"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chapter 13 bankruptcy&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, you file a repayment plan with the bankruptcy court to pay back your debts over time. The amount you'll have to repay depends on how much you earn, the amount and types of debt you owe, and how much property you own. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What might I lose if I file for bankruptcy?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;You may be able to exempt up to $17,425 of your homes equity. Some states have no homestead exemption; others allow debtors to protect all or most of the equity in their home.(this is only an estimate and to please consult a local Bankruptcy Lawyer to discuss your individual situation) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Insurance. You usually get to keep the cash value of your policies.&lt;br /&gt;Retirement plans. Pensions which qualify under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) are fully protected in bankruptcy. So are many other retirement benefits; often, however, IRAs and Keoghs are not. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Personal property. You'll be able to keep most household goods, furniture, furnishings, clothing (other than furs), appliances, books and musical instruments. You may be able to keep jewelry only worth up to $1,000 or so. Most states let you keep a vehicle with more than $2,400 of equity. And many states give you a "wild card" amount of money -- often $1,000 or more - that you can apply toward any property. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Public benefits. All public benefits, such as welfare, Social Security, and unemployment insurance, are fully protected. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Tools used on your job. You'll probably be able to keep up to a few thousand dollars worth of the tools used in your trade or profession. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Wages. In most states, you can protect at least 75% of wages that you have earned but not yet received.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Creditors Can Get Around the Automatic Stay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Usually, a creditor can get around the automatic stay by asking the bankruptcy court to remove ("lift") the stay, if it is not serving its intended purpose. For example, say you file for bankruptcy &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;the day before your house is to be sold in foreclosure&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. You have no equity in the house, you can't pay your mortgage arrears, and you have no way of keeping the property. The foreclosing creditor is apt to run to court soon after you file for bankruptcy, to ask for permission to proceed with the foreclosure - and that permission is likely to be granted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Will bankruptcy stop a &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/stopforeclosure.htm"&gt;foreclosure&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Yes and No… A home is an asset usually secured by a deed of trust. The mortgage company is entitled apply to the court for relief from the automatic stay, the order preventing creditor action by virtue of the bankruptcy. Depending upon several factors, you may be able to prolong a foreclosure until you have received your discharge from bankruptcy. Usually, to keep a home that is in foreclosure you will have to make a deal with the Mortgage Company. This is the key, you still must work something out with the Mortgage Company to repay the past due amount. This is why we say filing for Bankruptcy is like putting a band aid on a bullet wound… it may help you at first but major surgery is still required.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bottom Line:&lt;/strong&gt; Bankruptcy may buy you a small amount of time but negotiations will still need to be made with the Mortgage Company to enable you to keep your home. Most people who file Bankruptcy to save heir home from &lt;strong&gt;Foreclosure &lt;/strong&gt;wish they had not because in most cases they are in a worse position that when they started. Filing Bankruptcy removes your leverage and places your fate in someone else’s hands. Your best option is for you to stay in control, and allow &lt;strong&gt;SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt; work something out for your prior to filing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pros for filing Bankruptcy to Stop Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt; proceedings will be temporarily suspended.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cons for filing Bankruptcy to &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/stopforeclosure.htm"&gt;Stop Foreclosure&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;There will be a bankruptcy on your record for 10 years.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The Mortgage Company can work around the Bankruptcy and still &lt;strong&gt;Foreclose&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;You lose any leverage and control you once had.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;A deal must still be worked out with the Mortgage Company to repay the past due amount. If you are 1 day late on any trustee payments your case "may" be dismissed, the stay will be lifted and you will be back in &lt;strong&gt;Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt; can negotiate on your behalf with the Mortgage Company to keep your Home from Foreclosure and get your loan back in good standing. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;About The Author:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/WWW.SELLQUICKFORCASH.COM%20"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WWW.SELLQUICKFORCASH.COM&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; has a team of highly trained &lt;strong&gt;short sale experts&lt;/strong&gt; who have established fantastic relationships with most banks.

As such, an owner considering a &lt;strong&gt;Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt; should be encouraged to discuss these issues with an attorney, accountant, or other appropriate professional. From my understanding, the debt forgiven by a lender is generally taxable to the borrower as "debt discharge income." When a taxpayer receives proceeds from a new loan, those proceeds are not taxable income because there is an offsetting obligation to repay. However, if the debt is cancelled, there may be debt discharge income. This basically means that if you owe $200,000 and Short Sale the home for $150,000, on your next tax return it could look like you have $50,000 worth of earned income from the sale of your residence and would be treated as taxable income. IRS Form 1099-C: Cancellation of Debt will be sent to you at the end of the year.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BREAKING NEWS! H.R. 1876:&lt;/strong&gt; The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007 would eliminate the tax owed on any forgiven mortgage debt. This bill has been passed and signed into law by the president! The bill permanently eliminates tax on up to $2 million of debt for a principal residence. The best part about this bill is that it is retroactive to January 1st, 2007. This means that any &lt;strong&gt;Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt; conducted after that date automatically is protected from any tax implications!

Debt reduced through mortgage restructuring, as well as mortgage debt forgiven in connection with a foreclosure, qualify for this relief.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This provision applies to debt forgiven in 2007, 2008 or 2009. Up to $2 million of forgiven debt is eligible for this exclusion ($1 million if married filing separately). The exclusion &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;doesn&lt;/span&gt;’t apply if the discharge is due to services performed for the lender or any other reason not directly related to a decline in the home’s value or the taxpayer’s financial condition.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The amount excluded reduces the taxpayer’s cost basis in the home. More information on claiming this exclusion will be available soon.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;The questions and answers, below, are based on the law prior to the passage of the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. What is Cancellation of Debt?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you borrow money from a commercial lender and the lender later cancels or forgives the debt, you may have to include the cancelled amount in income for tax purposes, depending on the circumstances. When you borrowed the money you were not required to include the loan proceeds in income because you had an obligation to repay the lender. When that obligation is subsequently forgiven, the amount you received as loan proceeds is reportable as income because you no longer have an obligation to repay the lender. The lender is usually required to report the amount of the canceled debt to you and the IRS on a Form 1099-C, Cancellation of Debt.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s a very simplified example. You borrow $10,000 and default on the loan after paying back $2,000. If the lender is unable to collect the remaining debt from you, there is a cancellation of debt of $8,000, which generally is taxable income to you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Is Cancellation of Debt income always taxable?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not always. There are some exceptions. The most common situations when cancellation of debt income is not taxable involve:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Bankruptcy: Debts discharged through bankruptcy are not considered taxable income.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Insolvency: If you are insolvent when the debt is cancelled, some or all of the cancelled debt may not be taxable to you.You are insolvent when your total debts are more than the fair market value of your total assets.Insolvency can be fairly complex to determine and the assistance of a tax professional is recommended if you believe you qualify for this exception.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Certain farm debts:If you incurred the debt directly in operation of a farm, more than half your income from the prior three years was from farming, and the loan was owed to a person or agency regularly engaged in lending, your cancelled debt is generally not considered taxable income. The rules applicable to farmers are complex and the assistance of a tax professional is recommended if you believe you qualify for this exception. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Non-recourse loans:A non-recourse loan is a loan for which the lender’s only remedy in case of default is to repossess the property being financed or used as collateral.That is, the lender cannot pursue you personally in case of default. Forgiveness of a non-recourse loan resulting from a foreclosure does not result in cancellation of debt income.However, it may result in other tax consequences, as discussed in Question 3 below. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. I lost my home through foreclosure. Are there tax consequences?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are two possible consequences you must consider:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Taxable cancellation of debt income. (Note: As stated above, cancellation of debt income is not taxable in the case of non-recourse loans.)&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;A reportable gain from the disposition of the home (because foreclosures are treated like sales for tax purposes).(Note: Often some or all of the gain from the sale of a personal residence qualifies for exclusion from income.)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Use the following steps to compute the income to be reported from a foreclosure:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 1 - Figuring Cancellation of Debt Income (Note: For non-recourse loans, skip this section. You have no income from cancellation of debt.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Enter the total amount of the debt immediately prior to the foreclosure.___________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;2. Enter the fair market value of the property from Form 1099-C, box 7. ___________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;3. Subtract line 2 from line 1. If less than zero, enter zero.___________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The amount on line 3 will generally equal the amount shown in box 2 of Form 1099-C. This amount is taxable unless you meet one of the exceptions in question 2. Enter it on line 21, Other Income, of your Form 1040.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 2 – Figuring Gain from &lt;strong&gt;Foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;4. Enter the fair market value of the property foreclosed.For non-recourse loans, enter the amount of the debt immediately prior to the foreclosure ________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;5. Enter your adjusted basis in the property.(Usually your purchase price plus the cost of any major improvements.) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;____________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;6. Subtract line 5 from line 4. If less than zero, enter zero.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The amount on line 6 is your gain from the foreclosure of your home. If you have owned and used the home as your principal residence for periods totaling at least two years during the five year period ending on the date of the foreclosure, you may exclude up to $250,000 (up to $500,000 for married couples filing a joint return) from income. If you do not qualify for this exclusion, or your gain exceeds $250,000 ($500,000 for married couples filing a joint return), report the taxable amount on Schedule D, Capital Gains and Losses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. I lost money on the foreclosure of my home. Can I claim a loss on my tax return?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No. Losses from the sale or &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt; of personal property are not deductible.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Can you provide examples?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A borrower bought a home in August 2005 and lived in it until it was taken through &lt;strong&gt;foreclosure&lt;/strong&gt; in September 2007. The original purchase price was $170,000, the home is worth $200,000 at foreclosure, and the mortgage debt canceled at foreclosure is $220,000. At the time of the foreclosure, the borrower is insolvent, with liabilities (mortgage, credit cards, car loans and other debts) totaling $250,000 and assets totaling $230,000.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The borrower figures income from the foreclosure as follows:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Use the following steps to compute the income to be reported from a foreclosure:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 1 - Figuring Cancellation of Debt Income (Note: For non-recourse loans, skip this section. You have no income from cancellation of debt.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Enter the total amount of the debt immediately prior to the foreclosure.___$220,000__&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;2. Enter the fair market value of the property from Form 1099-C, box 7. ___$200,000__&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;3. Subtract line 2 from line 1.If less than zero, enter zero.___$20,000__&lt;br /&gt;The amount on line 3 will generally equal the amount shown in box 2 of Form 1099-C. This amount is taxable unless you meet one of the exceptions in question 2. Enter it on line 21, Other Income, of your Form 1040.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step 2 – Figuring Gain from Foreclosure&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Enter the fair market value of the property foreclosed.For non-recourse loans, enter the amount of the debt immediately prior to the foreclosure. __$200,000__&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;5. Enter your adjusted basis in the property.(Usually your purchase price plus the cost of any major improvements.) ___$170,000__&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;6. Subtract line 5 from line 4.If less than zero, enter zero.___$30,000__&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The amount on line 6 is your gain from the foreclosure of your home. If you have owned and used the home as your principal residence for periods totaling at least two years during the five year period ending on the date of the foreclosure, you may exclude up to $250,000 (up to $500,000 for married couples filing a joint return) from income. If you do not qualify for this exclusion, or your gain exceeds $250,000 ($500,000 for married couples filing a joint return), report the taxable amount on Schedule D, Capital Gains and Losses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this situation, the borrower has a tax-free home-sale gain of $30,000 ($200,000 minus $170,000), because they owned and lived in their home as a principal residence for at least two years. Ordinarily, the borrower would also have taxable debt-forgiveness income of $20,000 ($220,000 minus $200,000). But since the borrower’s liabilities exceed assets by $20,000 ($250,000 minus $230,000) there is no tax on the canceled debt.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other examples can be found in IRS Publication 544, Sales and Other Dispositions of Assets, under the section “Foreclosures and Repossessions”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. I don’t agree with the information on the Form 1099-C. What should I do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contact the lender. The lender should issue a corrected form if the information is determined to be incorrect. Retain all records related to the purchase of your home and all related debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;7. I received a notice from the IRS on this. What should I do?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The IRS urges borrowers with questions to call the phone number shown on the notice. The IRS also urges borrowers who wind up owing additional tax and are unable to pay it in full to use the installment agreement form, normally included with the notice, to request a payment agreement with the agency.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8.

We created graphs to help all of us see the downward trends year over year! Let's start with our favorite quote:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The median home price remained stable at $220,000, in contrast to last year's $265,470.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Now while it is true that month-to-month, the median was unchanged, it is clear that there was a 17% YOY drop. In most circles that brings words to mind like "crash" or "plummet"- not "stable".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Here's the graph:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/uploaded_images/Phoenix-Median-Home-Price-Appreciation-720903.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No, "stable" is not the word that comes to our minds- "consistent", maybe?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sales&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Butler reports:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;March is typically an indicator for the coming resale home season, and with 4,335 recorded sales it's showing signs of a continuing weak market. Even though it is an improvement over the 3,750 sales of February, it is significantly below last year's 5,385 sales and is the lowest March since 1996, with 3,270 sales.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is plain to see that with a 19.5% drop in sales year-over-year, we think the market is not so much "continuing to be weak", but "continuing to deteriorate".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/uploaded_images/Phoenix-Single-Family-Sales-740616.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Butler states:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;While there are many problems rising out of the hyper-resale market, many households were able to acquire homes with traditional financing, according to Jay Q. Butler, director of Realty Studies in the Morrison School of Management and Agribusiness at Arizona State University's Polytechnic campus.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;"People who settled in their dream homes with manageable mortgage payments have little incentive or pent-up demand to change their housing investment. Thus, lower sales activity should not be unexpected," he said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Butler may not jump right out and state that he does not expect lower sales activity, but we do. Last year March was the busiest month of the year, and in 2006, it was the second busiest. While it is possible that there might be a month or two that are busier than March this year, it is unlikely that there would be a significant increase over March sales, and it is our expectation, based on traditional seasonal patterns that most months would be slower.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His conclusion is surprising, given this frank assessment of the current situation:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;During the last year, the housing market has been confronting issues derived from the hyper-market of previous years such as the subprime meltdown and overly ambitious investors. Unfortunately, there is increasing data, such as job losses and layoffs, that the economy is now weakening and will add further stress for the housing markets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Butler also does a good job explaining what is driving the lower prices:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Capital is available for lower-priced housing, but lacking in the higher priced housing market. The recent rise in the FHA limit from $271,050 to $346,250 will help some move-up market activity. However, the non-conforming limit is expected to remain at $417,000, which will be of little assistance to the higher priced market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last year, 39 percent of the resale homes sold for more than $300,000, while it was 27 percent for March 2008. Homes selling for under $200,000 have increased from last year's 16 percent to a current 40 percent of the local resale housing market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The following is the market breakdown sorted by city according to Butler:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The median square footage for a single-family home recorded sold in March 2008 was 1,770 square feet, which is larger than the 1,700 square feet for a year ago. In the townhouse / condominium sector, the median square footage was 1,160 square feet, which is larger than the 1,120 square feet reported a year ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In contrast to March 2007, recorded sales in the city of Phoenix decreased from 1,450 sales to 1,075, while the median sales price decreased to $185,455 from $228,000. Since Phoenix is a geographically large city, the median prices can range significantly such as $148,800 ($157,700 in February) in the Maryvale area to $263,500 ($260,000 in February) in the Union Hills area. The townhouse / condominium sector decreased from 400 to 195 sales and the median price decreased from $165,000 to $149,000.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Scottsdale resale home market declined from 465 to 305 recorded sales, with the median sales price decreasing from last year’s $635,000 to $525,000. The median resale home price is $605,000 ($573,570 in February) in North Scottsdale and $260,000 ($254,000 in February) in South Scottsdale. The townhouse / condominium sector in Scottsdale decreased from 280 to 155 sales, and the median sales price decreased from $265,950 to $236,750.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Mesa resale housing market declined from 620 sales a year ago to 450, while the median price fell from $242,700 to $200,000 ($208,750 in February). The townhouse/condominium sector also fell from 190 to 90 sales, while the median home price decreased from $158,400 to $144,000.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Glendale decreased from 355 to 260 sales, and the median sales price decreased from $248,250 a year ago to $209,750 ($202,000 in February). The townhouse / condominium sector decreased from 50 to 15 sales, while the median sales price increased from $148,850 to $155,000.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the city of Peoria, the resale market declined from 255 to 190 sales, while the median price moved from $270,000 to $235,900 ($225,300 in February). The townhouse/condominium sector decreased from 35 to 20 sales, while the median price increased from $165,000 to $175,700.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In comparison to a year ago, the Sun City resale market declined from 150 to 100 sales, while the median sales price decreased to $182,500 from $200,000. Resale activity in Sun City West decreased from at 70 to 60 sales, and the median sales price decreased from $217,450 to $214,000. The townhouse/condominium market in Sun City decreased from 75 to 65 recorded sales, while the median home price decreased from $131,000 to $119,900. In Sun City West, activity stayed at 25 sales and the median sales price decreased from $190,000 to $130,970.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resale market in Gilbert increased from 290 to 295 sales, and the median sales price decreased from $295,500 to $245,000 ($254,700 in February). The townhouse/condominium market declined from 15 to 10 sales, as the median sales price decreased from $200,000 to $176,450.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the city of Chandler, the resale market declined from 380 to 325 recorded sales, with the median sales price decreasing from $293,850 to $234,000 ($245,000 in February). The townhouse/condominium market declined from 65 to 20 sales, and the median sales price went from $170,000 to $145,000.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The resale market in Tempe decreased from 125 to 100 sales, with the median sales price decreasing from $278,750 to $237,000 ($240,000 in February). The townhouse/condominium sector fell from 95 to 35 sales, and the median sales price decreased from $198,500 to $160,000.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The highest median sales price was in Paradise Valley at $1,750,000 with a median square foot house of 3,995 square feet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;In the West Valley, the following communities represent 14 percent of the resale market.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Avondale decreased from 100 to 90 sales, with the median price moving from $232,280 to $185,130 ($194,570 in February).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El Mirage increased from 40 to 60 sales, while the median home price went from $213,750 to $146,900 ($149,500 in February).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Goodyear went from 105 to 125 sales, while the median price decreased from $255,000 to $220,000 ($220,490 in February).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Surprise improved 250 to 285 sales, but the median price went from $241,500 to $205,000 ($213,740 in February).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;It is clear to us that the market is still correcting and that prices are obviously falling.

We understand what it's like to have continual phone calls from your lender ... calls at home, calls at work and letters in the mailbox.

We understand that each situation is unique and that is why we create custom solutions to your housing / financial problems! We also understand that you are being bullied by your lenders, and feel threatened by greedy investment companies! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Below is a list of tips that we have created to ensure that you are getting a fair deal when working with a "&lt;strong&gt;We Buy Houses For Cash&lt;/strong&gt;" investment company.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Most important...make sure everything is in writing! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Ask for a business address. Investors just showing up to your door are more than likely trouble so you should use extreme caution when signing any papers! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Ask for "real" referrals from past clients to check their business practices! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Check with the BBB to see if they are in good standing! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Never sign a deal on the first consultation! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Ask them if they are going to pay you cash for your Tempe house within days, or are they just trying to lock your house down in a contract and then go find a buyer? This is called wholesaling and unless they are up front about their intentions, many investors will try and put a contract on your house with no real intention to buy it! They then go out and try to find a buyer for your home for more money. These investors are not real buyers and you should make sure they put up some kind of earnest money when they sign the initial contract! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Trust your gut...if it feels like a good match, make the deal! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Ask for all options in writing and make sure you fully understand each one! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Choose to use a company that has a strong team of professionals that each have one common agenda...helping you sell your home quickly and for a FAIR deal! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Call SellQuickForCash.com, while you shop us, we can refer other professionals to shop as well that we know apply ethical business practices!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Take the time and visit our website &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;http://www.sellquickforcash.com/&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;to learn how you can sell your Tempe, Arizona House Fast.

Falling Prices Affecting Arizona!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/uploaded_images/Falling-Home-Prices-782658.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;BOSTON (Reuters) - For decades, buying a home was a key step on the path to financial security for the American middle class.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Home owners could count on a fixed mortgage payment rather than rising rent, take advantage of tax breaks, and build equity as their houses increased in value over time. But with home prices falling and families losing their homes to foreclosure, some people who under other circumstances would be looking to buy their first home now see greater security in renting.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One such person is Lisa &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Chesnut&lt;/span&gt;, who lives in &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Tucson, Arizona&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, and works as an information systems coordinator. With a good job and two young sons, 29-year-old &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Chesnut&lt;/span&gt; and her husband, Bryan, look like classic first-time buyers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They had considered it, until the market started to slide a year ago. "At first we thought, prices are falling, that's good," she said in a phone interview. "Then we started reading about the foreclosures and the ARM rates and people &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/situationsandanswers.htm"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;losing their homes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;," she said. "We thought, what if something happened where we could lose our house?" &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her big fear is falling behind on a mortgage. Having read about people who face higher payments on their adjustable-rate mortgages (ARM), she realizes that being approved for a loan does not guarantee it will be affordable. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;STAYING PUT&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;One sign that more people are choosing to remain in rental apartments while they wait out the slump comes from Equity Residential, one of the largest U.S. apartment owners. Fewer people have been moving out of its apartments -- last year 63.3 percent of its units changed hands, down from 64.9 percent in 2006.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Turnover is slowing and the rate of moving out for home purchase we also saw slow throughout 2007," said Fred &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Tuomi&lt;/span&gt;, president of property management at the Chicago-based company, who oversees about 150,000 apartments nationwide.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And population projections by the National Association of Realtors suggest hundreds of thousands of young Americans are sitting out the housing market entirely -- neither buying nor renting.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"There's probably 700,000, maybe 800,000 people out there that are not getting into the market either as a renter or as a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;home buyer&lt;/span&gt;," said Walter &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Molony&lt;/span&gt;, spokesman for the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;NAR&lt;/span&gt;. "Where are these folks? They're out there, they've got jobs. Some of them are moving back with their parents, never left the house, they're doubling up with roommates."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's no scarcity of data to worry potential &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;home buyers&lt;/span&gt;. Recent reports show that the average price of an existing single-family home in U.S. metropolitan areas fell 6 percent in the fourth quarter, while foreclosure rates in the top 100 metropolitan areas soared 78 percent last year.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"They're the most nervous people I've ever met in my life," said Bob &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Moulton&lt;/span&gt;, president of Americana Mortgage Group, referring to the potential first-time buyers he speaks with. "They've seen what can go wrong in the mortgage market," said &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Moulton&lt;/span&gt;, whose company brokers $300 million of mortgages a year, mainly in suburban New York. "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Everybody's&lt;/span&gt; advising them, from the mother, to the father, to the uncle, their co-workers, telling them, 'Don't buy. Prices are coming down."' &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;OWNERSHIP DOWN&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Indeed, home ownership rates have fallen to 67.8 percent of households at the end of last year from 69.2 percent in 2004. That is below a 69.8 percent rate in Britain, but still much higher than European countries such as France and Germany.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For young people who are unsure about whether to buy instead of renting, experts said the key thing to consider is how long one plans to live in a house.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the boom years, from the late 90s through the first half of this decade, rapidly rising house prices meant that in many parts of the country a buyer could turn an easy profit after owning a house for just a year or two.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now young buyers should plan to stay in their homes longer than that, said Jim Gaines, a research economist at the Real Estate Center of Texas A&amp;amp;M University, in College Station, Texas. Even his own son, who recently married, has come to him with fears about buying real estate.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I told my son this, 'Look, if you buy a home today, you better be prepared to stay in it for a minimum of five years. Don't worry if it goes up or goes down (in value) a little bit in the next six months,"' Gaines said.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That knowledge is another factor keeping some young Americans in their rental apartments.&lt;br /&gt;"A lot of people I know are in that position, where their &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/whatwedo.htm"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;home isn't going to sell&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/a&gt;for what they paid for it right now," said Josh &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Stenger&lt;/span&gt;, a 37-year-old professor of film studies who lives in a rental apartment in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;Pawtucket&lt;/span&gt;, Rhode Island.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Stenger&lt;/span&gt; said he has toyed with buying a house or condominium, but has held off until he was sure he would be staying put for several years.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I don't foresee buying anything without planning to stay in it at least five years," &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Stenger&lt;/span&gt; said. "If the economy was different and it looked like prices were going to start going up again, I might feel more pressure."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(Reporting by Scott Malone; Editing by Eddie Evans)&lt;br /&gt;Copyright 2008 Reuters News Service.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Why Let The Stress And Pressures Of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Today's&lt;/span&gt; Turbulent Housing Market Determine When You Can Or Cannot Sell Your House?

An additional 1 million-plus borrowers were at risk of imminent foreclosure. The number of foreclosures is likely to set records throughout the year and poses an increasing risk to the housing market, the financial markets and the economy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke says the mortgage industry needs a "vigorous" response to help beleaguered homeowners. But what about the response — or lack of one — from borrowers?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In California, Florida and Nevada, particularly, where prices are falling the steepest, rising numbers of borrowers are giving up and abandoning their homes despite the significant damage a foreclosure can have on the credit ratings that determine their ability to get future loans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nationwide, more than half the borrowers who lose their homes through foreclosure never answered their lenders' calls or letters, according to Freddie Mac. And an MBA analysis found that 23% of loans in foreclosure last fall were to homeowners who had no contact with their lenders, and that an additional 18% were to absentee owners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The numbers help explain why it's so difficult to reverse the trends of rising foreclosures and falling property values. Even some homeowners who can afford to pay their mortgages are defaulting, Lauria says, because their house might have lost 30% of its value, and they figure it will be a long time before it's worth what they paid for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"They say, 'If I play my cards right, I can live here free for 12 months, maybe longer' " before the lender can foreclose, Lauria says. "Our challenge isn't contacting the borrower. I can talk to them, but they stick their tongue out at me."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hundreds of thousands of distressed homeowners are reaching out for help. The Homeownership Preservation Foundation, part of the Hope Now Alliance, fields more than 4,000 calls daily to its toll-free hotline (888-995-HOPE). But about 1 in 4 callers don't want credit counseling, the foundation says. Many simply want financial relief.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thary Yin, 26, who works at Wells Fargo's call center in South Carolina, talks with 10 to 20 borrowers a day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"A lot of the stories I hear from mortgagors are situations that are very, very extreme," she says. "I talked to a cancer patient, and after Katrina hit New Orleans, the stories I hear. … Wells Fargo offers solutions on the mortgage side, but on the personal side, you can only cover so much on a phone call. Not being able to do more personally is the most difficult thing for me."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Getting more aggressive&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With home prices sliding and politicians calling for government and the mortgage industry to do more to help troubled homeowners, lenders and loan servicers such as Lauria are becoming more aggressive in contacting delinquent borrowers and modifying loans to make payments a bit easier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Such tactics make sense for the loan industry: The last thing a lender wants is another vacant property to fix up and sell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We're becoming more realistic about where the market's going to go," said David Sunlin, senior vice president for foreclosures and bankruptcy at Countrywide Financial, which is the nation's largest mortgage lender and the focus of several government investigations into aggressive lending practices that made the company financially vulnerable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With an inventory of nearly 40,000 foreclosed properties nationwide, Sunlin says, he will work with a borrower to try to sell a property, even with a sizable loss, up to the date it's scheduled to be auctioned at a foreclosure sale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At JPMorgan Chase, which has seen foreclosures jump 38% in the past two years, cases now go from collections to the "loss mitigation" department just five days after a borrower misses a payment, so the company can try to find a faster solution to keep the homeowner in the property. Not so long ago, the loss mitigation department didn't get involved until 90 days after a missed payment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As soon as a lender takes control of a property, the value begins to drop while the maintenance costs mount.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Safeguard Properties, a company many lenders use to change the locks, cut the grass and board up windows on foreclosed homes, has seen business rise more than 15% during the past year. A lender will pay $600 to $1,200, and more in some cases, for Safeguard to care for each property.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The largest surges in new foreclosures in the fourth quarter of 2007 were in California, Arizona, Nevada and Florida, where the frenzied real estate boom in the past several years attracted buyers who put little money down and got risky loans with virtually no proof of income.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Avoiding lenders&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many reasons homeowners behind on their mortgages fail to contact their lenders, mortgage specialists say. Some don't believe their lenders can help them. Others fear it will only speed the foreclosure process. And some don't call because they simply don't have money to give the lender, according to surveys by Wells Fargo and Freddie Mac.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"It's (lenders') own fault that borrowers won't answer their calls," says Todd Buckner, CEO of National Housing Solutions, a for-profit mediator between borrowers and lenders to stop foreclosures. "Their collections departments have beat (delinquent homeowners) over the head for months. It's no wonder borrowers won't answer the phone."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To reverse public perception that they don't want to work with troubled borrowers, lenders are hiring and training hundreds of employees to answer calls and help borrowers restructure their mortgages. They also are turning to more creative ways to try to reach at-risk homeowners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Hope Now Alliance, a coalition of 28 lenders and loan servicers supported by the Bush administration, has mailed more than 1 million letters since December to borrowers with subprime, adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs). In many cases, the lenders are offering to freeze the borrower's interest rate for five years. In other cases, borrowers may qualify for a 30-year, fixed-rate loan. Even so, the response rate has been less than 20%, on average.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To find homeowners who have stopped paying their mortgages and moved out, lenders use companies known in the trade as "skip tracers." One of them, Players National Locator, for example, is receiving 7,000 cases a month from lenders looking to track down delinquent homeowners, up 20% since September.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Martin Goodman, president of Residential Capital in San Diego, sends his delinquent borrowers a $5 Starbucks gift certificate, along with documents that explain how his company can help them restructure their loans and avoid foreclosure. His response rate is only 10%.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Goodman says making contact is only one challenge. The other is persuading delinquent borrowers to tell the truth about their financial condition. He suspects at least 90% of borrowers don't explain the real reason they are falling behind on their payments out of fear it might accelerate their foreclosure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Everybody's grandmother is dying. Everybody's kid is having surgery," Goodman says. "I'd rather somebody say, 'We mismanaged our debt. This is what we make, and this is what we can afford.' "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A 'sense of entitlement'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As home prices fall from coast to coast, 8.8 million homeowners will have mortgage balances equal to or greater than the value of their property by the end of the month, Moody's Economy.com. predicts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That could come as a shock to consumers who thought property values would always rise, and it helps explain the attitudes lenders are seeing among their troubled customers, Goodman says.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"If you buy a car and it depreciates," Goodman says, "you don't expect the automobile dealer to write off your loan. There's a sense of entitlement (among homeowners) that is just unbelievable."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Goodman, whose firm specializes in home equity credit lines, says the main reasons people took out the loans were for home improvement, debt consolidation and medical expenses. But he estimates that about 20% used the cash to go on vacation or buy a new car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stories like his are fuel for the opposition in Washington against a government bailout for homeowners facing foreclosure. On the other side, consumer advocates such as the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) can cite a litany of abusive lending practices that hurt homeowners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The government ought to get involved because there's been a market failure," said John Taylor, CEO of NCRC. "Our proposal is for the government to act as a cash-flow agent, to temporarily acquire the mortgages creating these problems long enough to refinance them into sensible terms and conditions. There would be no bailout because the government gets paid back."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far, the Bush administration has backed two initiatives from the Hope Now Alliance to help some homeowners avoid foreclosure. But their restrictions severely limit their effectiveness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In December, for example, the alliance said it would freeze interest rates or refinance an estimated 1.2 million homeowners with subprime ARMs. To qualify for the interest-rate freeze, borrowers would have to be facing a 10% increase in their mortgage payment once their interest rate reset. But many subprime ARMs are tied to an international index that has fallen 2 percentage points since Christmas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"In our portfolio, 60% of the borrowers who would have gotten fast-tracked (under the Hope Now plan) would not get that now that the rates have changed so much," said Melissa Lucas, director of loss mitigation for Home Loan Services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead of a payment increase of $450 a month, on average, her customers will see their payments rise by only $135. They may still qualify for other loan modification programs, she said, but not for the Hope Now plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FHA can help, sometimes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a separate push, the administration backed this year's temporary increase in the maximum loan limits of the Federal Housing Administration, which caters to first-time and low-income borrowers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The FHA also has created a new loan program, called FHASecure, to help subprime borrowers refinance out of risky ARMs. Since it was announced in fall, the FHA has received about 277,000 applications and approved fewer than half of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In New Jersey, Lauria said he sent the FHA about 3,000 of his company's delinquent loans to see how many could be refinanced under the FHASecure program. The answer: 61.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even for the borrowers who contact their loan servicers, the options the companies can offer are tightly constrained by their contracts with investors who buy and sell pools of loans that are packaged as bonds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Lauria doesn't believe every homeowner who can't pay their mortgage can or should be saved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"One-third of people who are delinquent should be in foreclosure. It's the best alternative," he says. "They don't have the money. They shouldn't have (gotten the loan) to begin with."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that's why, he says, he doesn't blame some of them for walking away from their homes.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sellquickforcash.com/2008/04/homeowners-throwing-in-towel-and.html' title='Homeowners Throwing In The Towel And Walking Away From Their Mortgage.'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2578030456295891702&amp;postID=8492186451312578958' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.sellquickforcash.com/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2578030456295891702/posts/default/8492186451312578958'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2578030456295891702/posts/default/8492186451312578958'/><author><name>SellQuickForCash</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01174379902224878505</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2578030456295891702.post-8933218918881935095</id><published>2008-03-08T08:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T10:29:46.948-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='avoid foreclosure'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='how to stop foreclosure'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='how to short sale my house'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Paying Cash For Houses'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cash for houses'/><title type='text'>Is The Governments Plan To Help Homeowners Avoid Foreclosure Enough???  -www.SellQuickForCash.com-</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/uploaded_images/Drowning-In-Debt-734822.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This is another statistic that lends to the reason why short sales are becoming a popular method of liquidation for lenders. The homeowners usually work out a payment plan with their lender and 80% of them don’t even receive a FIRST PAYMENT! It is no wonder why banks are discounting properties so frequently. Now is the best time to look at &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/shortsale.htm"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;short sales&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/a&gt;as an exit strategy from your home!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CRL Criticizes Government’s Loan Modification Program &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Article: Kerri Panchuk &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.responsiblelending.org/" target="_blank"&gt;The Center for Responsible Lending (CRL)&lt;/a&gt; says the &lt;a href="http://www.ustreas.gov/" target="_blank"&gt;U.S. Treasury Department’s&lt;/a&gt; existing plan to help distressed homeowners is ineffective and realistically will only have the impact of preventing 118,200 foreclosures, which is only 3-percent of the outstanding subprime loans that are in the marketplace heading towards rate resets.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CRL said, “This analysis shows the Treasury plan, plus existing lender modifications, barely make a dent in the growing foreclosure crisis and will allow subprime damage to continue spreading through the entire economy.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a critique of the plan, CRL claims data supplied by the &lt;a href="http://www.mortgagebankers.org/" target="_blank"&gt;Mortgage Bankers Association&lt;/a&gt; points to a disturbing trend in which voluntary loan modifications will be significantly outnumbered by potential foreclosures.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Below is a verbatim list of CRL’s criticisms of the Treasury Department’s plans:(Source: CRL)&lt;br /&gt;On all loans, industry data show that for every loan modification made by a lender, seven times as many foreclosures are initiated. For the subprime adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) that are at the root of the current crisis, foreclosures outnumber modifications 13-to-1.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lenders are giving themselves credit for loan "repayment plans," but these should not count. Repayment plans make homeowners’ monthly mortgage payments higher. And they allow lenders to designate a distressed loan as being current without actually changing any of the terms that made a mortgage unaffordable in the first place.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is questionable whether even the true loan modifications will be sustainable because lenders have no obligation to report outcomes. In fact, previously &lt;a href="http://www.countrywide.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Countrywide&lt;/a&gt; acknowledged that most of its touted modifications actually "involved deferring overdue interest or adding the past due amount to a loan," not reducing interest rates or principal balances on unaffordable subprime ARMs&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;www.SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Specializes In Helping Homeowners Short Sale Their House(s).

Real Advice On How To Deal With And Avoid Foreclosure!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/uploaded_images/Foreclosure-Storm-702146.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;At &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;www.SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; we answer countless calls, and show up at many houses where homeowners who are facing foreclosure are not sure or understand what is happening to them, and more importantly, what to do about it! If you are falling behind on your mortgage payments and are getting letters and phone calls from your lender(s) asking you to contact them, then here are a few tips for dealing with foreclosure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. DO NOT IGNORE YOUR LENDER&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have options at this point and by ignoring the problem you are making it more and more difficult to negotiate a work-out plan (forbearance agreement) with your lender(s). The further behind you become the chances you will lose your home increases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;2. EVALUATE YOUR SITUATION&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you have any equity in your house that you are trying to protect? This is the golden question and is not always easy to answer. Many of us created HUGE equity when the housing market went nuts in 2004-2005. Unfortunately many of us did not sell during that time and instead refinanced and stripped the equity from our house! Two things are happening today….one, prices are falling and therefore our equity is disappearing, and two, we have overleveraged our houses and already spent the money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you evaluate your situation and realize that you do have significant equity in your home, you actually have some really good options! You could list your home with a highly skilled and determined Realtor that uses strategic pricing and strong marketing to sell your home before you go to foreclosure. Or, you could contact a company like &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;http://www.sellquickforcash.com/&lt;/a&gt; and sell your house within 3 days with no Realtor fees, repairs needed, closing costs, or hassles!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you evaluate your situation and realize that you do not have any equity in your home, a Short Sale is a great option for avoiding foreclosure and if you &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/shortsale.htm"&gt;CLICK HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, we will explain the ins and outs of this amazing exit strategy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;3. UNDERSTAND YOUR OPTIONS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, you want to try every available means to stopping your foreclosure before you decide to sell your house quickly. Contact &lt;a href="http://www.hud.gov/foreclosure/"&gt;www.HUD.gov/foreclosure/&lt;/a&gt; for some great foreclosure advice. You can also visit &lt;a href="http://www.fha.gov/foreclosure/index.cfm"&gt;www.fha.gov/foreclosure/index.cfm&lt;/a&gt; for more free advice. While we agree that these government services are great for some homeowners, they are not always able to act in the speed you might need to avoid foreclosure. Depending on your equity position, you can also:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SELL YOUR HOUSE FOR CASH:&lt;/strong&gt; Maybe you are currently &lt;a title="www.SellQuickForCash.com Solutions To Foreclosure" href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/situationsandanswers.htm#foreclosure" target="_blank"&gt;FACING FORECLOSURE&lt;/a&gt; or have other financial pressures and are forced to sell your house quickly. It can take 3...6...9 months or more to sell the traditional way, and there is no guarantee you will sell fast enough before the auction takes place. Whatever your reason is for needing to sell quick for cash, we have the cash available, and the team of experts in place to close in as little as 3 days. We buy homes all over the Phoenix Metro area and can buy yours too!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SELL YOUR HOUSE FOR CASH AND RENT IT BACK:&lt;/strong&gt; There are many reasons why you would want to sell your house to us and keep living in it. Financial pressures, a difficult divorce, a pending foreclosure are just a few of the many reasons you may need to sell quickly. This option is perfect for anyone that says "I want to sell my house fast" but does not want to move out yet. You can &lt;a title="Rent Back Option From www.SellQuickForCash.com" href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/rentback.htm" target="_blank"&gt;rent your home back&lt;/a&gt; for as little or as long as you wish and the best part is we will always structure the deal at very competitive market rent rates.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SELL YOUR HOUSE FOR CASH, RENT IT BACK WITH AN OPTION TO BUY AT A PRE-DETERMINED PRICE:&lt;/strong&gt; If outside circumstances have forced you to sell your home without you wanting to move, we can create a plan with a short-term rental, or long-term rental that has an &lt;a title="www.SellQuickForCash.com Buy Back Option" href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/buyback.htm" target="_blank"&gt;option to buy-back&lt;/a&gt; the home at a pre-determined price. This allows you to get quick cash for your house, continue living in it, and buy it back for less than market value while saving most of your hard earned equity. This is a great option if you believe your situation is only temporary and you will want to continue owning your home in the future once your finances get stronger! The best part of this deal is all of our rental rates, and buy back options are set up fairly with the price agreed upon in advance.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you do not have any equity, you can:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NEGOTIATE A SHORT SALE WITH YOUR LENDER:&lt;/strong&gt; A Real Estate Short Sale refers to a lender(s) accepting a sales price that is less than what is currently owed plus all related sales expenses. This is common in a declining housing market and can be a win-win for both the bank and the homeowner. Normally a bank will begin to look at the &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/shortsale.htm"&gt;short sale&lt;/a&gt; option only if the homeowner is behind on payments and begins to face foreclosure. This option is great if you have no equity and can find a skilled Realtor or Investment Company that understands how to negotiate through the short sale process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;4. AVOID FORECLOSURE PREVENTION SCAMS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If a company is sending you letters, calling you on the phone, or showing up on your doorstep and is promising to stop the foreclosure auction if you sign some paperwork, more than likely they are trying to take advantage of your situation and steal your equity. The most common scam in the foreclosure industry is where a fast talking person shows up with a lot of paperwork saying that he was sent there by your lender(s) and can stop the auction and refinance your home if you sign all the documents. What you are unaware of is within all those documents, is a purchase contract, and the deed to your house! Before you know what has happened, the so called representative is gone and you no longer own the equitable rights to your home. They then go out and use someone with good credit to pull cash out of your house and vanish without a trace! Follow the links for other well known foreclosure scams.

WE BUY AND NEGOTIATE SHORT SALES!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;A lot of homeowners that visit our website call us to understand HOW SHORT SALES WORK? I created this quick Blog post to give a fast explanation on the ins and outs of short sales in Arizona, as well as give a good understanding of the short sale process! The following are some general questions we get when homeowners call:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is doing a Short Sale a good option for a homeowner that is having a tough time selling in today’s market because they owe as much or more than their house is worth?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, we have to understand the three major areas of a homeowner’s life that a short sale could affect:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Credit Issues&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A short sale may adversely affect a borrower's credit rating because a lender can report for seven years that a loan has been "settled" for less than its balance. Although a lender is unlikely to change what it reports to credit bureaus, a borrower may attempt to negotiate this issue when arranging the short sale or request a letter from the lender detailing any extenuating circumstances surrounding the short sale. We use &lt;a href="http://www.genesiscreditgroup.com/"&gt;http://www.genesiscreditgroup.com/&lt;/a&gt; when dealing with any credit concerns!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Deficiency Judgment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to recoup any shortfall in the final sales price, including attorney's fees, court costs, and accrued interest charges, the lender must file a deficiency judgment. A deficiency judgment is defined as a judgment that has been issued when the collateral for the loan is inadequate to satisfy the lender's debt completely. Arizona is a Non-Deficiency State meaning that most single family residences are not at risk to cover the difference between the amount owed, and the amount accepted from a Short Sale. According to &lt;a href="http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ars/33/00814.htm"&gt;http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ars/33/00814.htm&lt;/a&gt; the law is as follows:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;33-814.&lt;/strong&gt; Action to recover balance after sale or foreclosure on property under trust deed&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;F. A deed of trust may, by express language, validly prohibit the recovery of any balance due after trust property is sold pursuant to the trustee's power of sale, or the trust deed is foreclosed in the manner provided by law for the foreclosure of mortgages on real property.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;G. If trust property of two and one-half acres or less which is limited to and utilized for either a single one-family or a single two-family dwelling is sold pursuant to the trustee's power of sale, no action may be maintained to recover any difference between the amount obtained by sale and the amount of the indebtedness and any interest, costs and expenses.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets Recap:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arizona is a non-deficiency state and as long as your home qualifies under the above foreclosure laws, you do not have to pay back the difference between what you owed, and what you finally sell your home for! Just to be safe, a good Realtor or Investor should negotiate for the lender to put in writing to waive their right for a deficiency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Tax Complications&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When completing a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_sale_%28real_estate%29"&gt;Short Sale&lt;/a&gt;, possible tax issues can arise for the homeowner. As such, an owner considering a Short Sale should be encouraged to discuss these issues with an attorney, accountant, or other appropriate professional. From my understanding, the debt forgiven by a lender is generally taxable to the borrower as "debt discharge income." When a taxpayer receives proceeds from a new loan, those proceeds are not taxable income because there is an offsetting obligation to repay. However, if the debt is cancelled, there may be debt discharge income. This basically means that if you owe $200,000 and Short Sale the home for $150,000, on your next tax return it could look like you have $50,000 worth of earned income from the sale of your residence and would be treated as taxable income. IRS Form 1099-C: Cancellation of Debt will be sent to you at the end of the year.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BREAKING NEWS! H.R. 1876:&lt;/strong&gt; The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007 would eliminate the tax owed on any forgiven mortgage debt. This bill has been passed and signed into law by the president! The bill permanently eliminates tax on up to $2 million of debt for a principal residence. The best part about this bill is that it is retroactive to January 1st, 2007. This means that any Short Sale conducted after that date automatically is protected from any tax implications! For more info, please visit &lt;a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/12/20071220-6.html"&gt;http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/12/20071220-6.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s Recap:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bank accepts a Short Sale, your foreclosure is canceled, and you sell your home for less that what you originally owed. The new House Bill H.R. 1876 should protect you, but if you do not qualify, and you receive a 1099-C: Cancellation of Debt at the end of the year, you still have options! Ask your accountant about the IRS Form 982: Reduction of Tax Attributes Due to Discharge of Indebtedness (&lt;a href="http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f982.pdf"&gt;http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f982.pdf&lt;/a&gt;). If you can prove your insolvency (your expenses outweigh your income) then you should qualify for an exemption and not be taxed on the deficiency.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How does a typical short sale negotiation work (i.e. the general process)?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Short Sales are a difficult and time consuming process that only true professional negotiators should undertake. You only have one shot to get it right or you risk facing a foreclosure on your record! Here's the general process:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Initial offer is made and agreed to between buyer and seller (subject to lender's approval) 1-3 days &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Short Sale package is prepared and submitted to lender - Week One &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Lender processes the package through their system - Week 2 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Lender orders a Broker's Price Opinion - Week 3 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Lender says they can't find the package and asks you to resubmit it. Week 4-5 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Broker Price Opinion is Performed and submitted to lender - Week 4-5 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Broker Price Opinion is evaluated by Lender - Week 6 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Lender says they can't find the package and asks you to resubmit it - Week 6 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Loss Mitigation Specialist is Assigned and Whole Package is Reviewed - Week 7-8 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. Lender proposes A Counter Offer - Week 9 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11. Negotiation Continues - Week 10-12 &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12. Agreement is reached and the closing takes place within 30 days. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are some of the negotiating practices you have found to be effective?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, understand the goals of the parties involved: &lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Buyer: Wants to buy as low as possible&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Lender: Wants to sell as high as possible&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Real Estate Investor / Realtor: Wants to buy a property below market value or earn a commission. Also, they want to follow the law in their state.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Seller: Praying that it all works out and stops the foreclosure&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Second, listen more than you talk. The other side always wants to be heard. If you don't let them tell you their side, you are going to lose.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Third, Always let the other side talk first. There is an axiom in negotiating, "He who speaks first loses."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fourth, remind everyone that you are trying to reach a win/win solution.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fifth, remember that NO is not a final answer. You may have to go through 7 NO's to get to the YES you want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Are there any common mistakes you see people make in short sale negotiations?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Lenders mistakenly believe the BPO (Brokers Price Opinion) is correct. However, the BPO is usually prepared by an inexperienced agent because the lender only pays @ $50.00 for it. It is our job to influence the BPO to reflect the true market value!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Buyers become impatient and lose sight of their goal. If we are negotiating a short sale on behalf of a seller and we find an end buyer other than ourselves to purchase the property, it is our job to keep the end buyer on the line long enough to finish the negotiating process!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Becoming angry is a negotiation killer. The Loss Mitigation processors at the banks are overwhelmed with the amount of foreclosures they are getting back on a daily basis. Imagine you working in a call center only dealing with hundreds of angry homeowners and short sale negotiators all day long! It is our job to constantly stay in touch with our assigned Loss Mitigation processor and stay on their good side. We have many negotiating tricks and techniques that get the job done, but avoid pissing off these overworked bank employees!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can you give me a specific example of a negotiation that went particularly well, or particularly poorly, and why it went the way it did?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seller Owed: $320,000&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;We Offered: $199,000&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;BPO: $219,000&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Field Test: $240,000 (This was like an appraisal review)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Lender's Counter-Offer: $240,000 Close in 7 Days&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Our Counter-Offer: $209,000Our Offer Was Accepted!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This &lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/shortsale.htm"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;short sale&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; took two and a half months to complete! The house needed about $15,000 worth of repairs and was in an o.k. location in North Phoenix. The major negotiating stance we took was that it bordered the 202 Freeway, needed some repairs to get it up to a marketable condition, and had over 45 bank owned properties and listed short sales within a 2 mile radius! Our expert negotiator worked diligently on this file and in the end the homeowners avoided foreclosure and we were able to purchase the house for a great deal!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is there anything else you think is important for homeowners to know?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Work with an experienced Real Estate Investment Company or Realtor unless you like to learn things the hard way. Lenders will not allow you to negotiate your own short sale no matter what they tell you in the beginning! Local investment companies all say and do the same things, it is the character one conducts business in, the ethics they abide by, and the systems they have in place that sets a good investment company above the rest. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;At &lt;strong&gt;SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt; we pride ourselves on our commitment to our clients and their families! We only choose to work with those that we truly feel we can help in their brief period of financial despair!&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Make sure you have plenty of patience and can stay calm during this time-consuming process. We will do everything in our power to keep you informed every week so you understand where in the process we are! We take great pride in our organization and short sale system we have created and believe we are the best option for homeowners that are upside down, have a verifiable hardship, and need to sell their house quickly to avoid foreclosure. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/SHORTSALE.HTM"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;WWW.SELLQUICKFORCASH.COM/SHORTSALE.HTM&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:INFO@SELLQUICKFORCASH.COM"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;INFO@SELLQUICKFORCASH.COM&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;480-861-8732&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;WE STOP FORECLOSURE, WE SHORT SALE YOUR HOUSE, WE SHORT SALE HOMES, WE BUY SHORT SALES, WE PAY CASH FOR SHORT SALES, SHORT SALE EXPERTS, FORECLOSURE EXPERTS, SELL YOUR HOUSE FAST, WHAT IS A SHORT SALE, HOW TO SHORT SALE MY HOUSE, PAYING CASH FOR HOUSES, SELL MY CHANDLER HOUSE FAST, SELL MY TEMPE HOUSE FAST, SELL MY MESA HOUSE FAST, SELL MY GILBERT HOUSE FAST&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sellquickforcash.com/2008/03/want-short-sale-or-foreclosure-advice.html' title='Want Short Sale Or Foreclosure Advice?

How about "What Is The Short Sale Process And How Does It Work?"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;www.SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Buys Short Sales In Arizona!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It normally starts with by a job loss, death in the family, medical emergency, or option ARM adjusting. You fight to pay your debts, you understand that you don't have enough equity to refinance, and eventually you have to make a choice of which bills to pay....your mortgage, your car, or your credit cards. After you miss that first payment, your mortgage lender starts calling you. By the second month they start harassing you, and by the third month they start threatening you. Their big solution....pay them a large chunk of your arrears (the amount you owe them plus late payments, attorneys fees, and interest) and the rest will be spread out over a year's time increasing your monthly payments by hundreds of dollars. WOW, what a solution...let's raise my payments seeing how I am just overwhelmed with extra money each month!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So you accept the forbearance plan and try paying your lender what they want, quickly realizing how impossible this task really is. Finally you give up and miss some more payments resulting in the lender(s) filling for foreclosure. You ask yourself "what are my options?" Fortunately you have some choices...let's review them here:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Option #1: Pay Off Your Arrears&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This option only works if you actually have some money, or have the ability to borrow some money. This is by far your best option, but lets be real...if you have money you probably won't be facing these circumstances and you would be reading this purely for entertainment purposes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Option #2: Deed-In-Lieu&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The process of transferring ownership from you back to the lender is called a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure, and it is sometimes referred to as a "friendly foreclosure". If there are no other liens on the title, the lender may agree to take the property back. Unfortunately this option does not protect your credit, nor will it cut off the rights to the junior lien holders so this normally only works if there is only one loan on the property. Also, this option avoids the possibility of a deficiency judgment in the event the property fails to produce enough income to cover the outstanding debts after it goes to auction. If you have a lot of equity in your home, this is a horrible options seeing how you will give up your rights to receive any surplus from the auction! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Option #3: Do Nothing And Let It Go To Auction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is by far the worst of your options. A foreclosure on your record has a devastating impact on your credit, your health, your love life, your job, basically all daily activities for about 7-10 years. You will be evicted from your home and you will leave with nothing in hand. You must try something, anything to stop this from happening. You have many options if you have a ton of equity in your property, but the walls can feel like their closing in if you are upside down in your home. Fortunately there is a solution!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Option #4: A Short Sale&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Real Estate Short Sale refers to a lender(s) accepting a sales price that is less than what is currently owed plus all related sales expenses. This is common in a declining housing market and can be a win-win for both the bank and the homeowner. Normally a bank will begin to look at the short sale option only if the homeowner is behind on payments and begins to face foreclosure. The process works like this:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The homeowner(s) begin to miss payments &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The lender(s) try to arrange a repayment plan &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The repayment plan fails or is never attempted and the bank mentions a short sale&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Requirements for a short sale are:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;A proven financial hardship&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Behind on payments (In most circumstances) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;You owe as much or more than your home is currently worth&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The homeowner requestS a short sale packet from their lender(s)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The bank notifies the homeowner(s) that they can't turn in the short sale packet until they have a signed purchase contract&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;The homeowner(s) have to decide what to do next&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;http://www.sellquickforcash.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; specializes in negotiating short sales for Arizona homeowners.

This allows you to get quick cash for your house, continue living in it, and buy it back for less than market value while saving most of your hard earned equity. This is a great option if you believe your situation is only temporary and you will want to continue owning your home in the future once your finances get stronger! The best part of this deal is all of our rental rates, and buy back options are set up fairly with the price agreed upon in advance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sellquickforcash.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;www.SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:Info@SellQuickForCash.com"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Info@SellQuickForCash.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;480-861-8732&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;WE BUY HOUSES, WE BUY HOMES, WE BUY UGLY HOUSES, WE BUY UGLY HOMES, PAYING CASH FOR HOUSES, PAYING CASH FOR HOMES, CASH FOR HOUSES, CASH FOR HOMES, CASH OFFER, HOME INVESTOR, HOME BUYER, SELL YOUR HOUSE FAST, SELL YOUR HOME FAST, SELL YOUR HOUSE FOR CASH, STOP FORECLOSURE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.sellquickforcash.com/2008/03/sell-your-house-fast.html' title='Sell Your House Fast - www.SellQuickForCash.com Pays Cash For Houses Fast!'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2578030456295891702&amp;postID=1371694246553057042' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.sellquickforcash.com/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2578030456295891702/posts/default/1371694246553057042'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2578030456295891702/posts/default/1371694246553057042'/><author><name>SellQuickForCash</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01174379902224878505</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2578030456295891702.post-5557126457297114137</id><published>2008-01-02T08:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T10:23:15.121-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Short Sale'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Stop Foreclosure'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Paying Cash For Houses'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='We Buy Houses'/><title type='text'>Stop Foreclosure Now - www.SellQuickForCash.com Can Help You Sell Your House Fast!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_2FxrQWOKubA/R8rQHtFnZpI/AAAAAAAAAA0/xqtzPGmvekc/s1600-h/Stop+We+Buy+Foreclosures+Banner.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5173175952769246866" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_2FxrQWOKubA/R8rQHtFnZpI/AAAAAAAAAA0/xqtzPGmvekc/s400/Stop+We+Buy+Foreclosures+Banner.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WE BUY FORECLOSURES IN CHANDLER, ARIZONA.
