i'm not an attorney, but i work with foreclosures a lot. basically, you're going to destroy your credit with any of those options. can't really say that one is better than the other. - Wed Jul 23 2008, 13:55

i'm not an attorney, but i would agree with you.
as per arkansas law, EVERYTHING must be done in writing.
when the law says EVERYTHING, it means EVERYTHING.
there is nothing implied.
if you did not receive written notice of a withdrawal of their counter, then you should still have the option to accept the counter before it expired.
if you think it's worth it, i'd pursue the deal. - Tue May 6 2008, 18:18

Eric Pinter answered:
people don't really like to hear this, but your home may not be worth what you think it's worth.
check the county tax data (w/ assessor) to do your own comparable sales data. - Fri Dec 28 2007, 08:40
Eric Pinter answered:
how old is your house?
this is quite common with newer homes in subdivisions.
here's what happens:
let's say you buy one of the first homes in a new development for $140k. you live there for two years and then decide to sell. meanwhile, the builder keeps building similar homes in your subdivision. if he overbuilds, or there's a turn in the market, then suddenly there are a ton of brand new empty homes on the market. when you try to sell yours, you are competing with homes that have never been lived in. you have to drastically reduce your price in order to compete.
also, from a buyer's perspective, a price increase of $1000 equates to about $7/month increase in their payment. so even if you drop yours to $10k below what a new one is priced at, it's only a $70/month difference to a buyer. most buyers are going to opt for the brand new house for $70/month more. - Fri Dec 28 2007, 07:33
