A short sale is the process of selling a house that is worth less than what the owner still owes the mortgage company or lender. Usually homeowners short sale their home to avoid a foreclosure.The short sale process can sometimes be difficult, and sometimes lenders will be hard to work with. However, usually the lender would rather work with you than have to foreclose and deal with selling the home themselves.

This can be a death certificate of one of the owners of the home, a divorce decree, proof of medical expenses, or other proof that your hardship is genuine.

  • List of expenses

A mortgage lender is not going to let you walk away from your loan if you are making good money and have no major debts or financial hardships. Lenders usually have their own expenses form which you will have to fill out. This includes other debts, what you need for food every month, and other monthly expenses. Keep in mind, the bank will look critically at all your expenses, and you may want to cancel your platinum level memberships or Jelly of the Month Club before your bank looks through your expenses.

  • Proof of income and expenses

You will also need to provide proof of your list of expenses and proof of income to show that you cannot afford to make your house payments. This will include bank statements, paystubs, bills, and whatever other proof the bank needs to understand that your list of expenses are correct and that you cannot afford to pay all your expenses each month.
