There is a Formula to Whether Your Short Sale will be Approved

I have fifteen short sales that I am working on of those fifteen all of the lenders are stating that they need to net a certain amount.  I was beginning to think this was an isolated case until I came across the article at http://latimesblog.latimes.com

I discovered from this article that if the seller has a FHA loan, the lender “requires a net of 82% of current market value.  I was relieve to find out it is a formula that the lenders use.

The article went on to state that VA loans are required to net 88% of the current value.  Still yet, the conventional loans are required to net between 78% to 85% of the current value. 

As a homeowner who needs to sell it may be helpful to understand this formula.  Remember, a short sale can save your from a foreclosure as long as the lender can yield enough money from the sale.
