Danville Short Sales

Danville CA Short Sales Made Simple

Short sale properties have become more common in recent years and have become a part of the national dialogue when it comes to real estate and home sales. These properties represent challenges to both buyers and sellers and can also be a perfect decision on either side of the equation when approached correctly and with the help of an experienced real estate agent who understands the nuances of short sales.

While the short sale of properties in Danville is significantly lower than in other areas of the country and the San Francisco Bay Area, there is a short sale market here and home buyers are often looking specifically for these homes. The short sale market can be competitive and without the help of a practiced and skilled agent, can be difficult as well.

Short sales most often occur when some form of life changing event happens, causing the homeowners to no longer be able to afford their mortgage payments. Events such as illness or job loss are most common, and short sales allow a way for the homeowner to get out from under the large debt of homeownership and become unattached from the home.

The short sale process can take as little as several months and as long as two years and generally allows the homeowner to reside in the home throughout the process, if approached correctly. Short sales were not commonplace until relatively recently, and many realtors have has limited experience in this particular type of sale. It is imperative that you have the help of an experienced real estate agent or agency that ahs experience with short sales historically in the Danville market.
