Short Sale Authorization Letter
In the business world, short selling is an advanced trading strategy in which an investor sells a lent commodity. However, this technique is full of risks and pitfalls. Most of the time, people find themselves in a situation where they are facing troubles in maintaining their mortgage payments and want to sell that property or commodity to lessen their financial burden.
In these kinds of situations, your lender demands full authority to negotiate with the facilitating party and he needs a short sale authorization letter.
In the first paragraph of your letter, you will inform your lender about your decision. Give them some background of your decision and request a short sale.
Use the second paragraph to mention to your facilitating party and provide their complete information. Do not forget to describe its mandate.
In the third paragraph, declare this letter as an authorization letter and mention the validity if there is any.
Close your letter with some courteous salutation followed by your name.
