Wachovia Walks on Water?!

Well, you might think so after seeing what they do with their Orange County short sales.

Today, I spoke with a client about selling their home as a short sale.  During our discussion, I learned that Wachovia is their lender.  This is actually great news for a short sale seller in Orange County.

WHY?

This is great news because Wachovia has a great new program for its Orange County short sales.

• Local Wachovia representatives will meet with the seller and their agent to gather information.
• Wachovia will quickly order an appraisal or broker price opinion (BPO).
• Wachovia will have a response to a short sale request in 7 to 10 days.
• Wachovia will provide a “net” proceeds amount without need for an offer.

Why is this is a big deal?  There are several reasons.

• Most lenders won’t consider a short sale package until a purchase offer is received.
• It can take four months or more for some lenders to respond to an offer which can result in frustrated buyers, sellers and agents.
• This gives sellers closure quickly.
