Bank of America Offers Homeowners up to 20K Incentive To Sell As A Short Sale-Tampa, Fl

It was only a matter of time before other banks started offering incentives to homeowners to sell their home as a short sale.  Chase Bank started the trend and now Bank of America (BOA) has started offering Florida homeowners who are underwater anywhere between $5,000-$20,000.00.  Even better HAFA is offering $3,000 towards moving expenses.  

Bank of America encourages distressed homeowners to explore a short sale as a viable option for avoiding foreclosure. To that end, for a limited time we are offering enhanced relocation assistance to help motivate homeowners to engage with us on a pre-offer short sale. An additional benefit for these pre-offer programs – such as the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) and Bank of America’s proprietary program – is that deficiency may be waived for the homeowner.

Eligibility:

• Homeowners with property in Florida
• Short sales initiated without an offer between September 26 and November 30
• The customer will have to be eligible for one of the without offer programs such as the HAFA program or our proprietary program (specific investor participation and eligibility criteria do apply to these programs)
• Successful closing of the eligible short sale by August 31, 2012
• Minimum relocation assistance is $5,000 and maximum is $20,000, with the specific amount calculated based on the unpaid principal balance
