Anyone out there with a killer letter to banks that’s sure to make things turn to your favor? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
You’ll need ALOT more than a letter to get the banks attention. Your letter is basically just a brief intro and overview to what everything else is in your package your sending them: hardship letter written by the homeowner, pictures of the property, pictures of the comparable properties, comps (low-side), any negative articles you can find on the area, repair details and costs…etc etc. Your job is to build a case that will convince the bank they want nothing to do with this property and can’t wait to unload it. It will be an albatross in their portfolio if they don’t unload it. You want to dig up as much negative stuff as possible so the bank will be willing to discount it substantially just to get rid of it. Their loss is your gain.
And everything you send to the loss mit rep you also want to send to his/her supervisor as well so get/make doubles of everything. Do your homework and you’ll increase your odds of increasing your bank account.
gccre is spot on. Don’t worry about a killer letter. It is inconsequential. Build your case by getting the right supporting docs.
