My wife and I have been pursuing a short sale on a house we own. The interest-only period adjusted on our property, and we can no longer afford the mortgage. The value of the house has depreciated to the point that it is not worth near what we owe on the house. We started the process in XXXX XXXX. We have a buyer who is willing to pay the full amount our real estate representatives calculated was a fair market price. After having all the paperwork together and all financing prepared by buyer, the mortgage changed hands from XXXX to SLS. After resubmitting everything and being very diligent with the paperwork, the closing date was moved three more times by SLS because they were not ready. This caused my buyer to re-secure financing because her original agreement expired. More inspections and appraisals followed until everything was ready by the buyer and, we assumed, SLS. On Monday, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, SLS informed me that my short sale had been rejected by the PMI provider. My real estate attourneys informed me that I needed to file an appeal. I contacted the PMI provider, XXXX XXXX, and they informed me that they did not reject the short sale, they actually accepted it with an {$8200.00} promissary. I contacted SLS about this and they did not have any record of this on file. After contacting XXXX again, and talking to another representative, they confirmed that they talked to an SLS rep named XXXX XXXX and told her that they accepted the offer with the {$8200.00} promissary. Rather than recording this offer, SLS closed out my short sale file Monday morning. This is not acting in my best interest. I would have been very receptive to this offer rather than having to start the whole short sale process over again. My buyer has been waiting around for over 8 months now, and I am in danger of them just walking away. This would result in me probably losing the house to foreclosure. At this point, we are desperate for help. SLS is not doing what the government says the lenders should to provide foreclosure alternatives to us homeowners. They had a good offer that they refused to notify me about.
