FAQ
Greenville pre-foreclosure questions.
- Can you really close before my Greenville foreclosure auction?
- Yes, when the auction is 14+ days out, cash closings in Greenville, North Carolina routinely beat the sale date. The earlier you reach out, the more options stay on the table.
- Will this hurt my credit less than foreclosure?
- Significantly. A completed sale is reported as a paid-off mortgage; foreclosure stays on your credit for 7 years and lowers your score by 100-160 points.
- What if I owe more than the house is worth?
- A short sale may still be possible. Buyers in our North Carolina network have closed short-sale transactions with lender approval.
- How much equity can I expect to keep?
- Whatever exists after paying off your mortgage, liens, and back taxes at closing. The buyer covers those payoffs from the sale proceeds, you get the net.
