A homeowner’s association is an extremely small percentage of the overall short sale value. Lenders know that a short sale will net them substantially more money than a foreclosure.
I had a recent example of this. I listed a house that received a $139,900 short sale offer. The lender rejected that offer. The home was foreclosed on and sold for $116,400. That means that lender lost $23,500 by rejecting that short sale offer.
The short sale lenders/servicer had ran all the numbers on a short sale versus foreclosure. They have high paid actuaries who go through everything. If they have to foreclose, then they want to make sure they get the most amount of money possible. They know that they can recoup their money faster with a short sale versus foreclosing on a house and then reselling it.
Because of this fact, the lenders/servicers are willing to pay your delinquent homeowners association dues. In addition, the bank pays the real estate agent (they will have to hire a real estate agent when they sell the house.) They also pay the title insurance and property taxes, because they must be paid in order to sell a house. They have to pay all those costs when they sell a bank owned property.
The Bottom Line: All of the costs are borne by the bank in a short sale. You pay nothing.
