How Short Sales Work A short sale allows a homeowner to sell a property for less than what’s owed on the mortgage, with lender approval, offering an alternative to foreclosure. The process though is anything but simple. Short sales often require 3–6 months of back-and-forth with lenders, hundreds of phone calls, and intricate documentation. That’s where we come in.

Mostly, we work through agents. However, if you don’t already have an agent, we can be a partner in agent selection by recommending a trusted professional to guide you through the process. When should a short sale begin? The earlier the better. Ideally at least 90 days before a scheduled foreclosure; in some cases, we can work with as little as one month’s notice. Do you charge upfront fees? No. We only earn a fee if the deal closes Why should I hire Short Sale Expeditor® instead of handling it myself? Short sales are complex. We’ve closed thousands, know lender systems inside and out, and help agents avoid costly mistakes while saving time and protecting clients. Have any questions? Contact us today!
