Q&A: How long does the foreclosure process take in New Jersey?

Question by : How long does the foreclosure process take in New Jersey?
I was wondering how long it takes for a house to go though the foreclosure process, through to the sale date. One site said 270 days from moment of notice to sale date.

Best answer:

Answer by Bill
There is not as set time for the foreclosure procedure. It all depends on the lender and how many foreclosures they are involved in. Most lenders are overwhelmed by the number and are not staffed to handle them in consistent manner.

What is the process of buying a home with a realtor?

Question by poofheadvt: What is the process of buying a home with a realtor?
Do I, the buyer, have to pay out of pocket for the realtors commission or is it included in the selling price? Can I place a bid on a home for sale buy a realtor without using a realtor? Any other information along these line would be useful too.

Best answer:

Answer by sylviavnpttn
The commission is off the top of the selling price of your home. ALL commissions are negotiable with your Realtor. Placing a bid without a Realtor-Why? it is NOT going to cost you a penny. Its called representation and negotiation. Realtors have facts and knowledge that others do not. I would NEVER buy a house wihout a REALTOR.

How to short sale with child on title deed but not mortgage ?

Question by lvchic_702: How to short sale with child on title deed but not mortgage ?
My mom passed away and we are trying to short sale her home. My brother is on the title deed and second mortgage but not the first mortgage. Under the deed it says joint tenancy. We already have a realtor dealing with them but she doesn’t understand why first mortgage won’t cooperate so we will be seeking a lawyer for help. Doesn’t the deed give my brother automatic ownership since my mom passed on ? I live in Las Vegas, NV. Thanks.

Best answer:

Answer by wizjp
Problem is that as he was not in title on the original mortgage, they have the right to call the security your deceased parent pledged, and the joint tenancy is not in operation behind that first lien.

They believe you mom should not have added anyone to the title without their permission as it violates their secured interest in the property

YOu need a lawyer.

Ownership is not the issue here folks. The first lien position is being called against the owner of record who is deceased. THE ESTATE is responsible for paying off all liens secured by property owned by the deceased before ANYTHING passes. No mortgage paid=foreclosure. Joint tenancy or not. The mortgage doesn’t just go away because you put someone else on title.
