“We would like to talk with you about the possibility of selling your home for less than the amount you owe. If we agree on a lower sale price and a few other terms and you sell your house for that amount before foreclosure, you will get $20,000.”

That is what it states in a letter sent from Chase to a homeowner facing foreclosure.  On its face, this does not appear to be a bad offer for troubled homeowners. Of course, we, as attorneys, would want to know what the ‘few other terms’ are before advising a homeowner regarding this program.

We understand that short sales are not the best course of action for some homeowners facing foreclosure. However, If this is a legitimate program offered by Chase, it could make short sales a lot more desirable for troubled homeowners.
