Tampa Short Sale Attorney Serving St Petersburg, Clearwater, Pasco, Sarasota, Bradenton, Lakeland & All of Florida
If you’re like many Florida homeowners from Tampa to Clearwater, Sarasota to Lakeland, St Petersburg to Pasco to Bradenton and beyond, you may find yourself underwater on your mortgage, meaning you owe more than your home is currently worth. If you’re struggling to make ends meet, and are having trouble making payments on debts you owe, a potential option may be to consult with a short sale attorney.
A short sale is the sale of a house for fair market value, even if that value is less than what is owed on the mortgage. If the mortgage lender agrees to accept the proceeds of the short sale, this is clearly a good thing for a struggling homeowner. However, there may be tax or other consequences to the borrower. At Yesner & Boss, P.L., a short sale attorney can guide you through the process of how to do a short sale and assist you with the legal and tax consequences of a short sale. This course of action can be beneficial to both you and your mortgage lender, as the lender can avoid a lengthy and costly foreclosure, while you are able to pay off the loan for less than what is owed.
In addition to the financial stress faced by most people facing a possible foreclosure, the short sale process can also be very overwhelming without the proper assistance. At Yesner & Boss, P.L., a short sale attorney can assist you with the offer, sale and submission of the proceeds to the bank in order to pay off your mortgage, and in most cases there will be no further liability to you. The goal of our lawyers is to make sure you present your short sale request properly and adequately to lenders, as this can often be the difference between succeeding and failing.
