How To Get Money to Move After Short Selling Home
A common question and legitimate concern for residents with mortgage problems is, how to get money to move after short selling their homes. Our team here at the Gregory Real Estate Group have done our research and discovered there are no longer any viable options, at least from the government. However, that does NOT mean it’s impossible to get some assistance.
One Option Remains
We used to have two options available through state or federally funded assistance programs. One was the California Transition Assistance Program and the other was HAFA. All totaled, the benefits could have been worth up to approximately $5,000 depending on the home sellers specific circumstances. Since these options are no longer available the only remaining option available is requesting assistance from the lender.
Only Remaining Option
The only viable option left to get some relocation cash after a short sale is from the same lender taking the hit on canceling the loan. Although one might think they would NOT be helpful, that is NOT always true. When we short sale a home we always use a GREAT, 3rd party negotiator to work with your lender on your behalf. Depending on specific circumstances it is still possible to get some cash, but we can NEVER make any promises.
