Borrower makes request to lienholder to consider short sale...lienholder provides borrower instructions on what to do for the lienholder to consider shortsale request...borrower (Seller) does what lienholder tells them to do and when they have all of their stuff (Purchase agreement, MLS listing, bank statements, tax returns, and/or whatever else the lienholder needs/wants) they give it to the lienholder to review and either approve, counter or deny the shortsale request.Your purchase agreement should include as much protection as possible for you in case the deal doesn't close.
