Product: Mortgage — Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (CA)

I have been in a XXXX Short Sale review since last XXXX 2015. I unfortunately had to request a short sale as the modification payment coupled with loss of income made it necessary to sell our home. I received an offer on our home in XXXX of 2015 for $ XXXX, and it was submitted to the bank. Then we received notice that we had to sell via an online bidding with Nationstar. The bidding pricing range was $ XXXX to $ XXXX This occurred on XXXX/XXXX/2015. This process was supposed to have been done to expedite and ensure the home was sold at market value. Another reason we did not get as much traffic was because a lot of buyers did not want to pay for the 5 % buyers premium added to the purchase price. So in XXXX a bid offer was accepted bumping the offer we received in XXXX. Per XXXX guidelines we are supposed to have been given a reply within 30 days. We are now in XXXX and we are still waiting for approval. It has been about 2 1/2 weeks now that we have been waiting for PMI approval. How does this make sense to have the bidding to expedite the process and we are still waiting for an approval. From what I also understand, we should have received a Short Sale Notice, but we have not. I also have people coming to the house saying we are going into foreclosure sale because the foreclosure sale notice is published. This is very stressful and this is why with these lengthy processes and delays we lose buyers or as a homeowner we are mortified by the looming prospect of having our home foreclosed. Again, if the original offer was within the range, why did n't the bank just accept instead of accepting a higher bid, and then having to lower it? With such a long delay, it also makes it difficult to search for a new home to rent because we ca n't really commit and leave the home vacant. All of these situations make it for a very stressful way to live which also causes health concerns. Please assist us in expediting the process so that we may have a dignified closing.
