First Short Sale Negotiation

Here is the scenario:



Homeowner owes $208K on the first and $52K on the second. The home is worth about $255K since comps are $250K-$260K.



I have a buyer lined up once I negotiate with the two lenders who will purchase the home for $270K.



One of the conditions is that the homeowner get a listing agreement and we took care of that today.



The home is 3 yrs old and in great condition - no repairs needed. Only paint and maybe carpet.



My question is how much should I offer the bank.



I know I need to take into consideration the Realtor Fees of 6% and deduct it from the $260. In addition, there will be closing costs of $10K ($5K each). Paint and carpet is another $5K.



Any thoughts, suggestions?
