Frequently Asked Questions
What is a short sale and how does it work in NV?
A short sale occurs when a homeowner sells their property for less than the outstanding mortgage balance with the lender's approval. The lender agrees to accept the reduced amount and releases the lien on the property.
How does a short sale affect my credit compared to foreclosure?
A short sale typically impacts your credit 50 to 100 points less than a foreclosure and stays on your credit report for a shorter period. You can often qualify for a new mortgage within 2 years versus 7 years after foreclosure.
Will I owe the difference after a short sale in NV?
In many cases, the lender waives the deficiency balance as part of the short sale approval. We negotiate for a full release of the remaining debt so you walk away clean.
How long does a short sale take in Las Vegas?
Lender approval typically takes 30 to 90 days, depending on the lender and your loan type. Once approved, we can close within days. We handle all lender communication and paperwork throughout.
Do I qualify for a short sale?
You typically qualify if you owe more than the home is worth, you are experiencing a financial hardship (job loss, medical bills, divorce, etc.), and you cannot afford to continue making payments.
Does the lender have to approve the sale price?
Yes. The lender must approve the sale price and terms since they are accepting less than the full mortgage balance. We submit a complete short sale package with market data to support our offer.
What Our Sellers Say
“My mom passed and I inherited her place in Antioch. It needed a ton of work and I live out of state so I couldn't deal with contractors or showings. They came out, looked at it, and had a number for me the next day. We closed in 9 days. The whole thing was so much easier than I expected.”
Inherited Property
“Honestly I was skeptical at first because I'd heard horror stories about cash buyers lowballing people. But they explained exactly how they came up with the number and it was fair. We were behind on payments and they got everything done in a week. No last-minute changes, no surprises at closing.”
Avoided Foreclosure
“My husband got transferred to Dallas and we had about three weeks to figure out the house. A friend told us about EasyOffer. They gave us a cash offer that same afternoon and worked around our move date. We closed 11 days later without having to do a single showing or open house.”
