SHORT SALE PROCESS GUIDELINES GO INTO EFFECT JUNE 15, 2012
by Dawn Deegan
Here in
the Greater Orlando area, Short Sales made up 29% of our overall sales last
month, while 25% were REOs (Bank-Owned).
Bottom line: bank involvement in sales contribute to 54% of our Sold homes. As banks prefer Short Sales (their costs greatly
escalate to take a home into foreclosure), we can expect to see the Short Sale
to REO ratio rise in the future.

Starting
June 15, the Short-Sale Process should officially start to speed up. That is
the date that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac new guidelines go into effect: they are required to approve (or not) a Short
Sale within 60 days from receipt of an Offer. Large banks will be required to respond to a
Short Sale Offer within 30 days of receipt.
