Short Sale
9 years ago, my home value dropped 40% in 6 months due to a military base closing near my home (it was supporting the community). My business was drastically affected & I was forced to close down and move out of the community. The bank agreed to a short sale. After 9 years, I have finally recovered and am in the financial position to buy a home. My credit is excellent, I have no debt and can even put 25% down if necessary. Question: On a bank loan application, I am asked if I was ever obligated on any loan which resulted in foreclosure,, transfer of title in lieu of foreclosure or judgment. I'm assuming this would include a short sale. When I disclose it, will it affect my getting a loan? And if I do not disclose it, will I really be liable for criminal penalty? I have never filed for bankruptcy and have never had any other judgements against me. Thanks!
