Why Cleveland Home Buyers Try To Avoid Short Sales

Cleveland Home Buyers Try To Avoid Short Sales. And miss many  real good opportunities. Why?

There are few basic fears and myths:

  • Short sales take indefinitely longer than any other sales
  • Contract price in Short sale can be challenged by lender
  • You can not do real due diligence in short sale situation
  • Property may be damaged or even vandalized and no one will be responsible for this.

There are few serious reasons for existence of these fears and for buyers' desire to avoid Short sales in Greater Cleveland:

  1. Inventory of bank owned homes in Cleveland has been bigger than inventory of short sales.
  2. Home buyers and their agents prefer to buy foreclosures rather than short sales because of more simple procedure and more predictable outcome.
  3. Many Real Estate agents have no experience and training in dealing with short sales on the buyer's side. Many home buyers lose patience and quit the short sale deals because of lack of guidance from their agents.
  4. Some listing agents do mistakes in sellers' qualification, pricing, documenting, and submitting the right package to the lender for approval.
  5. Some listing agents do not care about cooperation with the buyer's agents and lose the deals because of lack of leadrship.
  6. Many home buyers and their agents are not aware of changes in banks' attitude towards short sale.
  7. First time home buyers do not want to jeopardize the eligibility for Home buyers tax credit and do not even consider short sales as an option.

However, in many cases home buyers get the great houses at Short sales and never experience any of nightmares.
