To Short Or Not To Short The 1st...What Would You Do?

lzuniga profile photo

ARV = 205K (based on sold comps)

1st = 158K

2nd = 28K

Contractor repair estimate = 23K

House is vacant, keys with me.



1st is foreclosing (wells Fargo)



I am submitting a SS package to the second (HSBC)



Is it possible that the 1st will short?? If so, how do I dictate the purchase price and payoff to the second on the Hud if I do not even know if the second will approve the number I sent to them.



Any input is greatly appreciated.

    The second is a HELOC .

    The as is FMV = 182k It could be less considering the way the market has turned...

    Thanks for the response.
