Short Sale Recap

For a limited time, qualified property owners who participate in a Cooperative Short Sale or Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) program may be eligible to receive $2,500-$30,0001 in financial assistance.

 

If you have a Federal Housing Administration (FHA) insured loan, you must have the FHA’s approval before beginning a short sale that the FHA will accept. Also, with an FHA-approved short sale, you may be eligible for up to $1,000 in relocation assistance.
