Back On Market! Contract Fell Through

In this market, things happen every day that simply make you shake your head in amazement. A client of ours upside down in a property in Clearwater Beach has been working for a year to do a loan modification with his lender... to no avail. Working with an attorney, he actually got an offer on the property that the bank ACCEPTED, then 2 days later they foreclose on the property! What??? Obviously they are repealing...

In this case, the owners of this gorgeous condo at Redington Shores Yacht & Tennis Club, going through their own financial and health issues, find themselves unable to keep up with this property weighted down with both a 1st and 2nd mortgage. They got a contract in which would be a short sale and presented it to the lender along with their hardship dilemma. After several weeks of intense scrutiny, the lender refused to even consider a short sale? So... the alternative??? Either let the bank foreclose on the property or be willing to accept a contract at a price where they can liquidate their future retirement and bring the balance of the funds to the closing table themselves.
So... that is the story with this condo. back on the market at $495,000 FIRM... $55,000 less than any other condo currently listed in the community! Seller will be ADDING close to $150,000 to the Buyer's purchase to make the transaction go through. Tough on the Sellers... an amazing opportunity for the Buyers. For information, click here.
