    Those figures seem to represent a good profit on those shortsales. Do you have buyers lined up already?

  • LOSSMITCRUSHER8th April, 2008

    Have you had a title search done and know that the liens attach? In FL the liens must first be certified and then they only attach for one year. After that they must rerecord them.

  • reweb3rd April, 2008

    Yes I have a Prelim and the liens are recorded against the property, they will get wiped if the property goes to auction,
    The goal is to obtain lien wavers from the lienholders so the sale can take place and avoid the auction[ Edited by reweb on Date 04/03/2008 ]

    this process varies greatly from state to state. Make sure you understand the process.

    Explain to the lienhold that they are going to get wiped out in a couple weeks and something is better than nothing.

    You need to research the exact situation and position the lien or subordinate mortgage is in.... Position as 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc.....who is in front vs liquidation value of the property, etc.

    I have earned $18K fron a $25K I lien I bought for $1K.

    I have barely broke even on a few.

    Each one is different. Negotiate to buy it for a nominal sum, then if you buy it.... max out your advantage...whatever it may be.

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    So I am basically looking at 5 months? I doubt highly I will wait that long. I will look for something else by then.
    So us faxing over the credit scores means nothing? Why did the sellers agent request that from us so she could fax to the bank?

    Thanks again.

    merlin was one of the few that would offer the service. Other were much more picky about business type, and have an office outside the home.

    Your position seems sound, Mama.

    Let us know how it turns out, OK?
