The Ballen Group Does it Again. Las Vegas Short Sale Agents close another Short Sale in Nevada with CHASE Mortgage.
The Ballen Group, Las Vegas Short sale Agents use a comprehensive Short Sale System for Nevada Short Sales leading to CHASE Short Sale closing.
Las Vegas, NV – March 3, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — The Ballen Group, a local team of award winning short sale agents in Nevada, who have been specializing in Nevada Short Sales for several years now, have completed a very difficult Las Vegas Short Sale with Chase Bank for the property on Fine Fern in Silverado Ranch. The Bank took a short payoff as the property sold for $84,900 and was originally purchased for over $200,000. The entire process took 92 days from listing to close although The Ballen Group notes that short sales vary on time with each bank, buyer, and seller.
Ballen uses a comprehensive Las Vegas Short sale system for sellers. Nevada Homeowners who are facing Las Vegas foreclosure can request that The Ballen Group, A successful Las Vegas Real Estate Agent Team, consult with the sellers about their needs. In addition, Ballen has created a custom short sale hardship package allowing the homeowner to complete the documents required by the bank to ease the process. Although The Ballen Group would never encourage Las Vegas Short Sale, many homeowners in Las Vegas and surrounding areas are facing true hardships that force them to attempt a Short Sale rather than face Las Vegas Foreclosure.
Many Las Vegas mortgages now exceed the fair market value of the home. Negative equity has become an increasing problem for the nation, but is excessive in Las Vegas. With the prices of Las Vegas homes decreasing, and the interest rates on previous subprime loans increasing, many Las Vegas home sellers have no choice but to negotiate with the bank to take less (also known as a “short”) on the sale of the property. The seller proves a hardship to the bank which could include divorce, loss of income, health issues and other various situations proving the monthly mortgage payments are impossible for the homeowner to pay. The home owner requests the help of a Real Estate agent, such as a Short Sale Specialist of The Ballen Group to sell their home and negotiate the sale with the bank.
The brokerage The Ballen Group Agents, who do their business under the brokerage Keller Williams Realty Las Vegas, lists the short sale property the same as they would with any other property including virtual tours and a comprehensive internet marketing program. The real estate commissions are negotiated with the bank rather than the seller. The Ballen Group then receives offers and presents them to the seller. Once an offer is chosen, it is submitted to the bank for approval. The entire process takes 60-120 days on average and could save the homeowner from Las Vegas foreclosure (Terms should be discussed with the seller’s attorney, accountants, credit advisors and any other professionals outside of the general real estate field).
“Another Nevada Homeowner Helped”, says Lori Ballen, team leader for The Ballen Group. “We are always thrilled to see the banks coming to terms with these sellers. The banks need to continue improving their systems, and making it possible for the sellers to move on with their lives”. Richard Ballen, Listing Specialist for the Ballen Group happily stated “Another Problem has been solved. Bring on the next one”.
