WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOUR LISTINGS CAN COST YOU BIG MONEY!
· Does your listing have an IRS tax lien?
· Did your seller tell you about their home equity line of credit?
· Is there a judgment lien filed against the property?
· Has there been a divorce?
· Has the lender started foreclosure proceedings?
· Is there an old title defect the owner does not know about?
Every day, closings are postponed or even canceled because of title problems just like these! Will your sale be the next one delayed or lost? Why not do a title search when the property is listed instead of when it’s ready to close.
SOUTHEAST TITLE offers Realtors a unique service that finds and fixes title problems before a contract… NOT AFTER! We will do a title search when you list a property and give you a full report… for free!
Thirty years of closing experience has taught us (particularly in this day and time) this is an absolute necessity for the protection of everyone involved in a real estate transaction!!!
HOMEOWNERS WARNING!
- Beware of any person or organization that asks you to pay a fee in exchange for housing counseling services or modification of a delinquent loan. Do not pay - walk away!
- Beware of anyone who says they can “save” your home if you sign or transfer over the deed to your house. Do not sign over the deed to your property to any organization or individual unless you are working directly with your mortgage company to forgive your debt.
Short Sale
In a short sale, the servicer allows the homeowner to list and sell the mortgaged property with the understanding that the net proceeds from the sale may be less than the total amount due on the first mortgage.
Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure
Generally, if the borrower makes a good faith effort to sell the property but is not successful, a servicer may consider a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. With a deed-in-lieu, the borrower voluntarily transfers ownership of the property to the servicer— provided the title is free and clear of mortgages, liens, and encumbrances.
