Many people believe that if the bank isn&#8217;t going to waive their deficiency, they should stay as long as possible and let the bank take it. Historically, banks moved very slowly and while there were some very severe repercussions, staying seemed like a good idea. On June 6, 2013 Rick Scott signed into law House Bill 87 reducing the statute of limitations for filing from 5 years to 1 year. The courts are now committed to moving this process along faster and will see about 5,000 foreclosure cases monthly, so there will be less consideration for upside-down borrowers. The judgment against you can last 10 years, but did you know it can be renewed for another 10? That&#8217;s a long time to be bogged down with this!<\/p>\n<p>A short sale also puts you in the driver seat and allows you to work with the bank. There are so many fine details to the short sale. If you are in a position of having to decide between a shore sale or foreclosure you should talk to your accountant and an attorney that specializes in short sales.\u00a0 If you have a home you need to sell in short sale, please don\u2019t hesitate to call me. I am happy to share my knowledge and experiences in this area!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the Miami real estate market has gotten stronger and prices are starting to rebound, many people are still under water with their mortgages and the ever-burning question remains: should I short sell or let the bank take the property in foreclosure?
