You will be asked to sign a promissory note for the "short" amount. You can pay this back over 20 years. This is the part that Homevestors is not telling you about. It is not a big deal if you owe $100,000 and sell it for $95,000. You sign a note for $5,000. But most houses sell way below the loan and no seller ever agrees to pay $60,000 over 20 years and lose their house. Might as well just let the bank accept a deed tomorrow and be done with it. The bank can sell it to Homevestors..<br><b>References : </b><br> The house can be sold. You will be asked to sign a promissory note for the “short” amount. You can pay this back over 20 years.

If you can afford to buy a new home, why not just pay the difference to your lender to sell your home without hurting your credit? It’s not only smart, it’s the right thing to do. <br><b>References : </b><br> I have to agree.

If you make that much money then why don't you sell it and deliver good deed with no hits at all to your credit by bringing the cash needed to close. You see you must meet the debt to income ratio with your old home + the new home in the mix as it is not sold.

Why are you buying? If you are doing a short-sale and stiffing the bank for the difference, do you really think anyone should loan you money to go buy another house? HomeVestors is saying they will try to have the issuing bank treat this as a non-recourse loan so that you would not have cancelled debt income for tax purposes. <br><b>References : </b><br> I was with you up until you said “We…buying the new home before they did the short sale on our current house.”
