It can be very confusing at times to understand some of the subtle differences for those with “distressed” properties – those where the price or the payments have become a challenge for the homeowner.
In a Short Sale, the value of the home has fallen below the balance due on the home loan mortgage, and the owner is either unwilling or unable to keep paying and wants to sell. Also known as being upside down on your properties. What is the process? It goes mostly like this:
1) The home seller hires a selling short real estate agent to attract offers
2) The agent accepts reasonable offers and sends them to the bank that holds the note on the property for approval
3) If the offer is accepted, the Buyer Agent and the Listing Realtor get their commission, the bank sells to the new Buying party and the Bank takes a loss on the mortgage on the books.
4) The current owner of the house gets nothing, but the financing for home is closed out and no more payments are due.
Some exceptions to this general rule occur, but most short sales occur in this type of procedure.
Short Sale Real Estate
How does this differ from a foreclosure. What is being foreclosed versus selling “short” for a Seller?
In a foreclosure, the owner has gotten behind in payments by at least 90 days. Once they are ninety days late, then bank that holds the mortgage has the right (but not the OBLIGATION) to take back the home and evict the current homeowners.
Home Foreclosure Property Colorado
1) the bank begins foreclosure proceedings, warning the resident that they will be foreclosed upon and will have to move out
2) a waiting period begins and at the end of this period the bank takes over ownership of the real estate and then can evict the homeowner
3) the bank then holds this property as Real Estate Owned or REO on their books and usually will sell it quickly in an auction process where many investors line up to buy at a deep discount
We focus on helping for sale by owner sellers to sell but when a homeowner is behind in payments or sees no point in paying for a mortgage that is higher than the home’s worth or value, different home sales procedures are used.
Want to know where you stand or have questions on the process. We are here to help. Call Steve 720-353-4451 with questions or if you prefer email send me one at Steve@FlatFee-Colorado.com
There’s a reason they call them “Flyers”
They fly out of your magic flyer box, most often without helping to sell your home or track your prospective buyers in any shape or fashion. There’s no “black box” to record the info on just who is looking at your home for sale by owner!
We say – Forget the Flyers! Instead: Invite the Buyers!
By utilizing attractive wedding-style invitations you accomplish many goals:
1) Your invitation is less likely to be folded up, stuck in the recycling bin or confused with all the other flyers in the car from that day of driving around home shopping
2) The invitation provides a means for tracking who is looking at your house
3) Invites are your personal security guard - keeping your personal information safe from no-good “home casing” experts
4) and finally they are memorable, which makes your home easier to recall when a buyer is thinking of their favorite homes to take a second look at…
Here’s how it works:
We have already discussed Funneling. If you have not seen that, view it quickly:
To get folks to visit your target of funneling – your home’s personal website – the Invitation is the “feet on the street” method. It resides at your home for passersby and “drives” them to your home info central.
Along with Video Syndication to multiple home listings sites, and posting on Craigs/Zillow and the like, you add the Invite to the mix. It contains two opportunities for home buyers:
1) You are invited to view my home’s personal website at
www.BestFSBO.com/123-Main-St
2) or call 800-473-1919 x321 for 24 hr recorded info
Remember, in any sales job – and selling for sale by owner is a serious JOB for sure – you want to be able to know who your prospective customers are and allow friendly, helpful contact to occur so they feel comfortable with YOU, the seller, as well as your home.
And WE invite you to list your home on BestFSBO.com and ask them to create your home’s personal website, along with custom video tour and central Funneling target location!

I want to sell for sale by owner in Colorado – with a little help…
If this describes you in any way, you are perfectly suited to select the Hybrid or Alternative method for going FSBO, but utilizing some low cost tools to greatly improve your chances of success selling your Colo. Real Estate.
Let’s review the choices available when you consider selling or make the decision to sell a Colorado Home:
1) For Sale by Owner or FSBO – you take on all the steps and task involved in marketing and closing on the sale of your real estate. You owe nobody a selling or Listing commission. You pocket the difference, which can be substantial
*most sellers and their advisers recommend offering a Buyers Agent for serious professionals that bring home buying prospects to your house sale. Offering the standard 2.8% generally triples or quadruples the qualified home shoppers and ends up netting sellers a higher amount.
2) You select to utilize the services of a real estate professional – a Realtor – to handle ALL the aspects of marketing, negotiating and the closing of your property transaction. They are responsible for the job — an it is a serious JOB with multiple tasks – of the Colorado Real Estate sale.
3) You take the middle ground. This is often called the “Hybrid” choice or the alternative method. How does this work? You go the for sale by owner route, but you select certain low-cost services to supplement your home sale efforts.
Those of you who’ve visited our site before know we offer high-value help and info – at no charge – from some of the top experts in our great State. When you want a no-cost, no-obligation review of your home selling plan from a top Colorado expert, just call Julie:
When it comes to the Hybrid choice, there are tons of options:
a)List your home on a FSBO Listings site that helps you to market the home (with pics, Video Tours, 24 hr recorded line, etc) to get your home maximum exposure to THE RIGHT LOOKERS.
b)Prepare your home by getting an appraisal, choosing to stage the home with professional help or getting pricing help with CMA or similar valuation help
c) Flat Fee – yes, our specialty! This is where you find a low-cost provider in your area to get you on the MLS, thus tripling or quadrupling the amount of worthy buyers that find your home during their house hunting
d) Contract and Negotiation services. Once again, you can bring in the pros, the hired gun, to handle some of the legally binding or sometimes overwhelming step of contract review, price and terms settlement, and checking the legally binding aspects of transfering ownership
