Is a Short Sale the best option to prevent a foreclosure on your Overland Park, KS. Home? Overland Park Short Sales

Kids in school, the final days of summer ahead as your family prepares for Fall....Should be a time to relax on the deck in your Overland Park home. Enjoying a few final weekends as summer activities make way for the new school year in the Blue Valley, Shawnee Mission or other school district is a routine fall ritual right?



You’re family has been motoring along and all of a sudden a few hiccups come along.



The brakes need to be replaced on the SUV, then your son gets injured in a football accident and now your spouses boss announces the news that he will need to start layoffs soon. The end of summer weekend vacation gets tossed off of the family plans.



The bills start piling up. The “payment due” notices for your mortgage become a weekly delivery in your mailbox. You just received a “Notice of Default” from your mortgage on your Overland Park home. Now what?



Solution 1 is the avoidance technique; you quit answering the telephone whenever the familiar “888” prefix pops up....you start to throw away the notices without opening them.



It works for a short while. But after a while, problems soon mushroom into catastrophes. The sheriff comes knocking at the door of your Overland Park home and is the bearer of bad news. You have been foreclosed on, the bank wants your Overland Park house back. 

When you checkout other Overland Park housing situations you find out that the foreclosure and poor credit is limiting your options to rent an Overland Park home, apartment or duplex.

There are other choices, other options.



Solution 2 is to talk to friends or inexperienced confidant who recommends a high priced solution. Remember, the reason you’re in this situation is a lack of funds, right? Or worse yet. They don’t discuss their high fee until the end. Lets look at other solutions.



Ok, a friend recommends an Overland Park REALTOR to help you for solution 3. Just happens that their best friend dabbles in real estate “part time”. You think you have hired a professional to help you out of the situation but a few days later you find out that the “part time” Overland Park REALTOR”  you just hired is actually learning. The last time they used the Short Sale Equator System was during the first update. Or worse yet, they have never used the Equator System. Don’t worry about getting any relocation expenses, They don’t understand the proper channels in requesting the expenses. If there is a problem, they don’t understand the escalation steps in order to get a proper remedy. The horror stories you have heard seem to be ALL true. The stress consumes ALL of your energy. You find yourself taking it out on your kids, spouse and friends.

1) Did you know that foreclosures are handled differently in Kansas than in Missouri?

That’s OK, most people don’t.

We can help you whether you’re in Kansas or Missouri.

2) Did you know that with many banks don’t answer request for short sales via phone, fax or email?

That is right.

We communicate with most banks through a private server that they have granted access to help homeowners prevent foreclosure.

3) Did you know that most Overland Park homeowners don’t pay us a dime?

That is right.

We collect our fee from the banks and they don’t tack on the fees to you.

4) Of course you know that by choosing the wrong person to help you could possibly cost you thousands and BAD credit....?

5) A delay won’t hurt, right? I mean I would like to see what I can do myself, first.

Wrong idea. A delay of even 2 weeks can put a limit on options of what we can do for you. Did you know that a bank in certain circumstances can foreclose on a home and have the sheriff at your door steps in 45 days? We can help prevent this if we have enough time.

If you said yes.
