The Ballen Group, A Las Vegas Short Sale Specialist Team, known for their Las Vegas Real Estate experience in Short Sales, has just closed another Short Sale in Nevada. Using their comprehensive Short Sale System, The Ballen Group is able to handle a large volume of short sales and accomplish the goal at hand, to close the short sale.
The property, located on HILLTOP VIEW in THE VISTAS, a Summerlin Village in  Las Vegas Nevada was listed with THE BALLEN GROUP of Keller Williams Realty Las Vegas.

The process was not easy, but with strong negotiating skills, a bit of magical problem solving, and a comprehensive marketing process, Ballen achieved the difficult approval to close the home. The HILLTOP VIEW home took a total of 106 days from contract to approval and 41 days close. Although the banks are working on their timelines and speeding up the short sale process, The Ballen Group says this is a common length of time for the short sale to complete. This was a Chase FHA short sale in Nevada and based on FHA guidelines, no deficiency will be pursued. The Original List price was $200,000 and closed at $177,000 with the bank paying $5,100 in closing costs to a FHA buyer.

"There are no promises or guarantees in a Las Vegas short sale whether the lender(s) will approve the short sale or forgive the debt, but Short Sales offer an alternative to the damaging effects of a Nevada foreclosure.",says Richard Ballen, Listing Specialist with The Ballen Group. "A short sale is a complicated process for all parties involved. There are so many details involved (more than what the average homeowner is aware of). Make sure to consult a Las Vegas Short Sale Specialist with a proven history of success with short sales like The Ballen Group".

Ballen uses a comprehensive Las Vegas Short sale system for sellers also known as The Ballen Method (www.TheBallenMethod.com). Homeowners who are facing Las Vegas foreclosure can request that The Ballen Group, consult with them about their needs. In addition, The Ballen Group has created a custom hardship package allowing the homeowner to complete the documents required by the bank to ease the process. 

“It takes more than an agent to properly work short sales. It takes a Team”, says Lori Ballen, Leader of The Ballen Group. “We have surrounded ourselves with talent from our administrative staff and Listing Managers to our processors and escrow. We want a lot of eyes on the transaction so it keeps moving down the timeline. Our short sale team is skilled, experienced, determined, and driven. They get the deal done”

SHORT SALES are an alternative to a foreclosure. When the borrower can no longer make the mortgage payments as agreed, he is faced with many decisions. One is to allow the lender to foreclose. Another is to get the lender to agree to accept a payoff of less than the balance owing on the loan. To understand short sales, one must first understand foreclosures.
