There are many misconceptions of what qualifies a Roeland Park, Kansas homeowner for a short sale. Lets ignore the paperwork and start with simple qualifications for requesting a short sale. The following is an explanation of the three major qualifications that most mortgage lenders look at in order to see if a Roeland Park, Kansas homeowner is qualified for a short sale.
I) Financial Hardship for Roeland Park, KS. homeowners
A financial hardship for Roeland Park, KS, homeowners is a verifiable issue that has caused the Roeland Park homeowner to miss mortgage payments on their Roeland Park, KS. home and will continue to miss mortgage payments for the near future. The Roeland Park, Kansas homeowner is having financial difficulties.
Financial hardships for Roeland Park, Kansas homeowners can be the results from:
1) Loss of job
2) Loss of income
3) Relocation
4) Illness of borrower or co-borrower
5) Divorce
6) Death of a co-borrower that helped you qualify for the mortgage loan
7) Declining local market property values
8) High medical bills
9) Hefty unplanned expenses
II) Monthly Shortfall for Roeland Park, KS. homeowners
A monthly shortfall is when a Roeland Park, KS. homeowner makes less then monthly expenses. Nearly every mortgage lender will want to see first before accepting a short sale that a Roeland Park homeowner cannot afford to pay their current mortgage. This is typically demonstrated by the Roeland Park, KS. homeowner completing a financial worksheet or a monthly profit and loss statement.
The equation a mortgage lender uses to figure if a Roeland Park, KS. homeowner has a shortfall is:
Total Monthly Income – Total Monthly Expense = Monthly Shortfall
You may qualify if you have a monthly shortfall or if a monthly shortfall is imminent
III) Insolvency for Roeland Park, Kansas homeowners
In order to qualify for a short sale, a Roeland Park, KS. homeowner must not have the means to pay down their mortgage loan. This means that the mortgage company wants to see that the Roeland Park, KS. homeowner has more debt than they have in cash. The mortgage lender wants to see that the Roeland Park homeowner can no longer meet their financial obligations with their lender as debts become due.
The Roeland Park homeowner does not have to be completely out of cash – this is a common misconception; the mortgage lender typically will want to see that over time the Roeland Park homeowner will not be able to pay their mortgage obligation. Having cash in the bank for living expenses is common and will not disqualify a Roeland Park, Kansas homeowner.
A Roeland Park, Kansas Homeowner is looking to have the mortgage lender grant a short sale to prevent a Roeland Park real estate foreclosure. The lender will grant a short sale if they believe that a foreclosure is inevitable and by granting a short sale they will save expenses vs. processing a lengthy and expensive foreclosure. To the mortgage lender it is a business decision.
