If you owe more than your Neptune Beach home is worth, a short sale. Selling for less than the loan balance with your lender's approval. May be a path forward. Our team has real short-sale experience and can help you navigate the lender side.
Why Neptune Beach Owners Sell to a Direct Cash Buyer
The big national instant-offer companies cherry-pick newer, undamaged homes in perfect condition. We're built for the opposite. The short sale home situations they decline. Here's who we help in Neptune Beach:
- You owe more than the home is worth.
- You're behind, or about to be, on payments.
- You want to avoid a foreclosure on your record.
- Your lender may consider a short sale.
- You want experienced help dealing with the bank.
How a Short Sale Works in Neptune Beach
In a short sale, your lender must agree to accept less than the full payoff. That means documentation, a hardship case, and lender approval before closing. Our team, including short-sale specialist Keith Jones, has walked many Neptune Beach owners through that process. A short sale affects your credit and can have tax implications, so a HUD-approved counselor, attorney, or tax professional should advise you alongside us.
Please note: We are direct home buyers and a real estate team. Not lenders, attorneys, or tax advisors. A short sale has credit and possible tax consequences. Nothing here is legal, credit, or tax advice; consult a HUD-approved counselor, attorney, or tax professional. I’m Chris Moore. Not a lawyer, and this is information we researched, not legal advice. Need an attorney for your situation? Reach out and I’ll gladly share my references.

That's the lender's decision, based on your hardship and documentation. We help you put together and present a strong case.
Does a short sale hurt my credit?
