Continue Chase Short Sale : Just Initiated Into Equator
Posted on October 16, 2012 at 2:24pm 6 Comments 0 Likes
We've been hearing it a long time, but today a Chase representative actually initiated one of our files into equator today. Chase files will be initiated into equator similar to how GMAC does it. One cannot initiate it into equator themselves and will need the assistance of the short sale department. Let's hope their equator system moves smoothly!

Hi Brett, THANK YOU for all your help in this latest shortsale as of late: I haven't worked with one that had a second DOT and the 2nd says they won't do a HAFA shortsale like the 1st said they would. I don't get why. Might it be because it's a Line of Credit? I've read the DOT and it just collateralizes the property. AND they haven't even seen his upside-down financial statement yet...
