Current Short Sales in Alpine

  "Short Sales"are where the homeowner still owns the house, but is selling it for less than they owe the bank for their mortgage, so the seller needs the mortgage holder's approval before selling the home. Therefore once the owner accepts your offer, you then need to wait while the bank negotiates with both parties,  the current owner and you. As a result the buyer is negotiating twice instead of just once and therefore prolonging the time it takes to buy the house. Once the bank gives the approval traditional escrow times apply of 30-45 days.As a reward for your time and patience short sales usually sale less than comprable traditional sales and bank owned foreclosures. Banks are claiming to take less time than they used to but general time is 3-6 months.
