Do I need a lawyer for a short sale?
Without question it is in your best interest to work with a short sale attorney throughout this process. Your lender is attempting to foreclose on what is likely the most valuable asset you have in your possession. Our law office can negotiate on your behalf with your lender to obtain the best outcome for you.
Most people facing a short sale have no experience negotiating with banks. Minchella & Associates has extensive experience in this area. We have found that every single lender requires different documentation and plays by different rules. Some lenders are straight forward whereas some lenders will require the same documentation five times. It is critical to know how to present your documentation to the lender in a way that prevents them from taking advantage of you. In addition, once the short sale has been negotiated, you will need a lawyer to close the transaction for you.
How do short sales work?
The process of a short sale varies depending on which lender with whom you are dealing. Minchella & Associates has dealt with virtually every lender and as such, is uniquely positioned to maneuver the process, help you understand it, and help with strategies for the more recalcitrant lenders. However, generally speaking there are certain steps that your short sale will take, these include:
