Q

short sale

Amount owed on property is more than the property is worth.

Q

third party rejection or changes to the
proposed short sale

A

Lender is not bound by what the Buyer and Seller have agreed to. The Lenders will usually send to the Seller a list of required changes to the proposed purchase contract (Third Party Modifications). They can affect price, timing, and requirements for the sell to close. They often require the parties involved in the transaction to respond with affirmative representations to the Lender (this is the true contract, no side deals, arm’s length transaction, no insider deals taking place, etc.).

Q

arm’s length transaction

A

Deal terms reflect a true negotiation. This deal is between parties that are unaffiliated, and it reflects the true result of an arm’s length negotiation (“you are negotiating for your interest, i’m negotiating for my interest, and here is where we have reached in the middle.”)
These transactions are not subject to Undue Influence (“I’m not being unduly coercive, I do not have something over you that l am extorting a better deal than I can.” This arm’s length negotiation reflects the true market value of the Property.

When lenders realize that their collateral is contaminated by meth they want to get rid of it. They will often agree to a much lower short sale price to get rid of the collateral. The agent’s friend submitted a super low offer and the agent was very effective at getting the lender to agree to the super low short sale price. Atter the closing, the agent was in control of the clean-up, the rehab, etc. and then relisted it at a significantly higher price. Problems: This agent was looking out for his own interest. The agent was acting as the principal (the Buyer and the Seller’s Agent). Motivated by greed.
