Recently, sellers who were seeking approval for their Freddie Mac Short Sale were informed by their loan servicing company that the investor (Freddie Mac) has made an important policy change. Effective immediately, Freddie Mac will no longer approve short sales of properties in the redemption period.
In Minnesota, the redemption period is the 6 month time frame following the Sheriff's Sale. This change is being made, in part, because the official ownership of the property changes when the Sheriff's Sale occurs.There are options to help you deal with these new changes, but don't delay.

Thanks to the efforts of the Minnesota Association of REALTORS®, there are no changes expected to the Capital Gains exemption for homesellers. The current exemption for the $250,000 of Capital Gains (single) or $500,000 of Capital Gains (married couple) remains in effect. Efforts to eliminate the Minnesota Property Tax Refund for homeowners have not been successful, again thanks in part to the efforts of the Minnesota Association of REALTORS®. In the Minnesota legislature, a bill has been introduced that would increase the maximum refund allowed for homeowners with household incomes from $37,280 to $100,779.
