destin short sale

Why do short sales take so long to complete?

That old adage “garbage in, garbage out”, probably best sums up the problem. The banks and lenders are being inundated with hundreds of thousands of short payoff proposals that don’t stand a chance of EVER seeing the light of day. The offers must fit within certain parameters to be approved. While our personal short sale success rate is more than 90%, the national average is only 25%. Were it not for the 75% “garbage”, the short sale process would be far more efficient and the real estate markets could see genuine recovery much more quickly.
