Q: Why does DOS Remediation need to be custom? Why not a template solution?
A: The plan has to take many things into consideration. Creative TC understands how each of these factors inter-relate.
Here are some of the things that can significantly impact how you can legally resolve due on sale:
The state
The deal type
The loan type(s): Conventional; FHA; VA; USDA, commercial, SBA, etc
The buyer and seller (and/or middleman) entity types
The intended and/or actual use of the property: rehab, LTR, STR, owner-occupied, etc
The lender(s) involved: small or big bank? private lenders involved?
The timeline
Length of time the current owner has had the deal
Future plans for the deal
Alternate exit strategies
How much cash was involved in the original transaction; how much do you have to handle
Is there trust between the parties (affects what alternate plans can be in place)
Is the seller still involved? willing to be? cooperative or resistant?
Tax implications: transfer/excise taxes, mortgage tax, property tax changes, homestead exemption;Â
Insurance: who's named? new policy needed? different type of insurance needed?
Balloon payments
RMLO/underwriting considerations
Title insurance: obtained? needed? voidable? can it be preserved?
