Hi, I’m Jason Zweigle with ShortSaleSlayerz.com. We’re one of Northern California’s leading short sale teams. Today I want to talk about what many homeowners are concerned about and that is, what it will cost you out of pocket to do a short sale. The good news is it should cost you nothing to do a short sale. I’m surprised at how many people don’t realize that a short sale is free to you, the homeowner. The reason that it’s free to you is that the bank pays for all the traditional closing costs that are involved with selling a home. They pay things such as your portion of your title and escrow, inspections, sometimes repairs, and realtor’s commissions.

I tell my clients if a short sale runs perfectly smooth, they should be able to walk away from a huge debt in an underwater home, they will hopefully receive $3,000 walking money because they have an approved HAFA short sale, and lastly, they will have no out of pocket expenses. Everybody’s short sales are different, but on average I would say the majority of my clients are able to walk away owing nothing and receive $3,000 to move out of their home, courtesy of Uncle Sam.

So, if you have any questions go ahead and fill out the form below. There is also a great free download with a lot of information on it. Another option is to give me a call.
