About this Event
Bankruptcy can create major issues in a real estate transaction if agents do not know what to ask, who has authority, and when to bring in the right professionals.
Join Ray Atencio, The Title Pro, and Attorney Bert Briones of Red Hill Law Group for Bankruptcy & Real Estate: How to List, Sell, and Close Without Getting Burned, a practical training designed to help real estate professionals better understand how bankruptcy can impact listings, escrow, title, foreclosure timelines, and closing.
This class will break down what agents need to know when a seller is currently in bankruptcy, has previously filed bankruptcy, or may be facing foreclosure. We will cover the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, who may have authority to sign listing agreements and closing documents, how bankruptcy can affect liens and foreclosure timelines, and what red flags should trigger a call to a bankruptcy attorney.
Topics will include:
What happens when a seller is in bankruptcy
Whether a homeowner can sell while in bankruptcy
Chapter 7 vs. Chapter 13 basics for real estate agents
Who has authority to sign the listing agreement, purchase agreement, escrow instructions, and deed
How bankruptcy affects foreclosure timelines
What agents should ask before taking the listing
Red flags that should trigger a call to a bankruptcy attorney
What happens to liens in bankruptcy
This presentation is built for real estate agents who want to avoid surprises, protect their clients, and keep transactions moving when bankruptcy is involved.
By the end of the class, you will have a better understanding of what to look for, what questions to ask, and when to slow down before a deal turns into a problem.
