Both of the last two condo and townhome purchases were short sale transactions. The Rolling Hills Estates townhome short sale, however, was one of the most complex short sales I have worked on. The seller had 5 different types of liens on the property which needed to be negotiated and removed, including both State of California and IRS income tax liens, upaid sales taxes owed to the State Board of Equalization, unpaid property taxes, and unpaid HOA dues and assessments. The underlying short sale lender was very cooperative, but had to extend the scheduled foreclosure sale date several times due to delays in obtaining the lien releases. All of this hard work was worth it as my client purchased this home for approx. $65,000 under market , based on the appraisal obtained by my clients new lender. Thankfully, we just closed the sale on the last day of the lender’s final extension.
