Short Sale ~ Do’s

• Be sure you understand your commitments and expenses contained within your contract.
• Are you required to submit your initital deposit to the escrow or title company even if your offer hasn’t been accepted by the seller’s lender(s)?
• Are you required (by contract) to proceed with the appraisal at this point?
• Will you be required to complete the property physical inspection?

Short Sale Don’ts

• Don’t open any new credit or make any large purchases during the home buying process.
• Don’t change jobs while buying a home.
• Don’t make any unusual or large deposits while in escrow.
• Don’t co-sign for anyone else.
• Don’t pay of any debts/close accounts during the home buying process
