Do your Short Sale in 2012; Debt Forgiveness Act expires 12/2012!
0 Comments
Critical that homeowners considering listing their home as a Short Sale do it in 2012..and in time to CLOSE by 12/31/2012. Why??? The Debt Forgiveness Act expires then! In California, although you will receive a 1099 for the debt that was forgiven, the debt is wiped out on primary and secondary residences..both first and second PMl’s. This helps you so much if you are not insolvent. Consult your CPA, then get that property listed and CLOSED in 2012.
Will the law be extended? I sure hope so. If not, Palm Springs and the La Quinta area will see more Foreclosures. We are really stabilizing in La Quinta. Prices are actually going up! Investors are finding that First time Buyers are able to beat them out in their bids!
Debt Forgivenss Act explained
If you are underwater on your mortgage and considering a Short Sale, get it listed NOW! Your final closing HUD must be dated no later than 12/31/2012 to qualify for your debt forgiveness. Consult your CPA, then get your property listed and CLOSED in 2012! Don’t wait and take a chance!
