Freddie Mac Short Sale News

Freddie Mac

Is your mortgage owned by Freddie Mac and you’re struggling to keep your home? Well, if you want to sell in order to avoid having a foreclosure on your record, you may be eligible for Freddie Mac’s recently enhanced short sale.

 

In case you don’t know, a short sale is when a lender agrees to selling the property for less than the full payoff amount. After the closing the lender releases the lien on the property even though they received less the the loan balance. The benefits of doing a short sale is that you will avoid foreclosure and eliminate the mortgage debt.

 

Recently Freddie Mac has simplified and streamlined the process. Here’s how…

1-By allowing their servicers to negotiate the terms of the short sale directly with short sale agent representing the seller.

2- They’ve eased up and expanded on allowable requirements such as what types of hardships will qualify homeowners for a short sale.

3- They provide $3,000.00 to borrowers who qualify for relocation costs.
