Question: If I declare bankruptcy now with regard to my other debts, will it prevent the short sale from going through?

Answer: -No.  Bankruptcy only postpones an auction or short sale which buys you more time.  In fact, many short sale investors will use bankruptcy as an option if they need to buy more time so it doesn’t go to auction, as long as it’s in the best interest of the homeowner.

Two months ago...if someone told me that I would have a deal going in real estate I would have told them they were crazy. I read the Foreclosure and Flippers books and started sending letters to people whose homes were up for sheriff's auction. I brought in an investor to buy the house and give my client some money to help him start over. The profit on this property will be about 40k. Not too bad for sending out a few letters.
