Questions
What is a short sale?
A short sale involves selling a property for less than the mortgage balance, typically to avoid foreclosure. We negotiate with lenders to approve the reduced payoff amount.
How long does a short sale take?
Short sales typically take 3-6 months, depending on lender responsiveness and documentation completeness. Our team expedites the process with dedicated lender communication.
Can I qualify for a short sale?
Qualification requires financial hardship, mortgage delinquency or risk, and a property value below the loan balance. We assess eligibility and guide you through documentation.
Are there costs for seller services?
Nearly all short sales incur no out-of-pocket costs for sellers. Fees are typically covered by the lender upon transaction completion.
Do you serve areas outside Connecticut?
Yes, we now serve Northeast Florida, including Jacksonville, while maintaining our expertise in Connecticut markets.
