Choose your short sale agent carefully.

A short sale is a type of real estate transaction that is too complicated to trust to a rookie. It can be a long and arduous process.

A short sale happens when the outstanding loans and liens against a property are greater than the proceeds from the home sale after all the closing costs are paid. Most of the time, a bank will choose to allow a short sale when it believes it will result in a smaller financial loss than a foreclosure.

Short sales usually take more time because it requires a number of approvals by a third party, which is the bank or the mortgage holder.

It requires a lot of skills and expertise to make a short sale successful. Is the Long Island short sale agent you are considering capable of impeccably getting the job done?

Here are a few things you should consider when hiring an agent:

1. Education and Experience

Experience is absolutely critical!

You need a Long Island short sale agent who has experience in negotiating contracts and short sales. Your agent should also have contacts at different banks and understand the language needed in the contracts.

If you hire someone who doesn’t have these qualifications, you will just be wasting your time, or worse, you might even end up facing a foreclosure.

Handling short sale transactions is a unique specialty and should only be handled by a professional who has taken the time to learn about short sale proceedings and has the experience behind him.
