I have been marketing my home fore sale under the HAFA Short Sale option and received an offer. Now what do I do?
When you receive an offer from a buyer, you will need to send a completed Request for Approval of Short Sale (RASS), Form 1136, to your lender along with the following: Executed sales contract, including all addenda • Buyer’s documentation of funds or buyer’s pre-approval or commitment letter on letterhead from a lender • Copies of all documentation indicating that subordinate lien holders have agreed to release their liens and the borrower from liability • Preliminary HUD-1 Settlement Statement Your real estate agent should help you complete and send the RASS. Once your lender has received your RASS and corresponding documentation, they will respond to you within 10 business days.
