We’ve seen far too many American  families having to make the hard choice of selling their home due to rising payments or 2nd liens.  With this decision, these families have to seek another home, meet the landlords tight restrictions usually based on credit scores, pack up all their belongings and negotiate moving trucks and getting family members and friends to help them move.  Not a very dignified solution to a bad financial situation.

With our “Short Sell & Rent Back” system, we make it easy and pain free for you to stay in the same home.

How does the Short Sell & Rent Back Program work?

  1. As Realtors, we list your home*
  2. A monthly lease rate is determined based on the  appraised value of your home.
  3. Under this agreement, you must keep the home clean and green…a reflection of your pride in home ownership.
  4. You are required to maintain, your property insurance, property taxes and Home Owners Association fees if property is located in an HOA.
  5. You contract with the non-profit organization SHARP to buy your home. SHARP will  negotiate with your mortgage company to sell your home to our investor under the Federal Governments HAFA Program. This process may take 4 to 6 months for approval to sell the home under the HAFA guidelines.
  6. The sale closes and you rent the property back.
  7. Your mortgage company pays our fees…you don’t pay any commissions.
  8. Buy the home back after 1 to 3 years at the FUTURE market value…a Win-Win!

* It is a requirement with mortgage companies that the property must be listed with a licensed real estate agent.
