Short Sales – We have processed many short sale settlements and understand how to work with banks to achieve positive results. Short sales are hard for you as well as the bank and we help you understand the banks requirements and help interface with the bank to relay your information so that decisions can be made. The short sale process and paperwork is much more complex than a standard settlement. Consumers First Settlements will explain the banks requirements and decisions. Sometimes the questions are tax related, and we suggest that you consult a tax professional for up-to-date information regarding those tax questions.

Title Insurance – We offer title insurance to our clients and explain the benefits of this type of insurance. Title insurance is indemnity insurance against financial loss from defects in title to real estate property and from the invalidity or unenforceability of mortgage liens. This insurance is meant to protect an owner’s or lender’s financial interest in real estate property against loss due to issues associated with the title, liens or other matters.

Bi-lingual – If you request, we can have a Spanish or Portuguese translator that speaks your language attend the settlement. This is an important step in helping you understand what you are signing and in answering any questions that arise during the settlement. Clear understanding from all people attending the settlement helps make the entire process proceed more smoothly. You will also feel better about the outcome when you have things explained in your native language. Just ask for a translator.

1031 Exchange & Investors – Consumers First Settlements has handled many 1031 Exchanges and understands the paperwork required. As always, we take pride in explaining all of the details you need to have answered so you can make an informed decision and prepare all of your documents for settlement. Understanding your decisions and the effect your decisions will have on the future is crucial for successful investors. Being informed is at the very heart of managing investments and at Consumers First Settlements we will process your 1031 Exchange professionally and with the integrity you expect.

Co-Ops & Condominiums – These ownership types are different than single family – fee simple - purchases. We can help you understand this type of purchase and ownership and guide you through the paperwork. As always, we are working to keep you informed so you can understand your decisions before you make them. Our goal is to make the settlement process as smooth and easy as possible for all parties.
