May 17, 2012 - PRLog -- The Sold Home Solutions Group with Keller Williams Realty has learned that Bank of America is going to pay underwater homeowners up to $30,000.00 to short sale their home. Contact us today at 407-617-7808 to find out if you qualify.

Under the plan, Bank of America will offer homeowners so-called relocation payments of between $2,500 and $30,000 if they sell their home in a short sale. In short sale deals, the sale price of the home is less than what the seller owes the bank.

The bank first tested the payments in a pilot program in Florida last fall. Under that initiative, Bank of America paid up to $20,000 to borrowers who sold their homes in short sales.

"This program can help customers make a planned transition from ownership when home retention options have been exhausted or they have made a decision not to keep the home," said Bob Hora, an executive for the bank.

Short sale make up 1-in-4 homes sold

Chase started a similar initiative in late 2010 that pays as much as $35,000 to short sellers. Wells Fargo  has also paid five-figure incentives to short sellers or to owners who turned over their deeds to the bank.

BofA said it has completed 200,000 short sales over the past two years. These sales are generally more cost effective for banks than foreclosures. By avoiding foreclosure, the lenders get distressed properties back from delinquent borrowers more quickly, which helps them to avoid property tax payments, maintenance expenses and legal fees that can build up for months, even years, as foreclosures work through the system.
