Foreclosure & Short Sale Buyer Application Form

Streamline Your Foreclosure and Short Sale Buyer Qualification Process

Foreclosure and short sale transactions require extra diligence, patience, and financial preparedness from buyers. This Foreclosure & Short Sale Buyer Application Form helps real estate agents, brokers, and property managers pre-qualify serious buyers while setting clear expectations about as-is conditions, extended timelines, and lender approval requirements.

Built with Paperform, this template captures all essential buyer information—from financial qualifications and cash reserves to property condition acknowledgments and timeline acceptance—in one professional, branded form. The conditional logic automatically adjusts questions based on purchase type and financing method, ensuring you collect exactly what's needed for each scenario.

Perfect for real estate professionals who:

• Specialize in distressed property sales and bank-owned homes
• Need to verify buyer financial readiness before submitting offers
• Want to set proper expectations about as-is purchases and approval timelines
• Handle multiple foreclosure and short sale listings simultaneously

Once submitted, connect this form to your CRM via Stepper to automatically route qualified buyers to your transaction management system, send disclosure documents via Papersign for eSignature, and keep lenders updated throughout the approval process. You'll spend less time on back-and-forth emails and more time closing deals.

With Paperform's payment integrations, you can even collect earnest money deposits or application fees directly through the form. Customize the theme to match your agency branding, embed it on your property listings, or share it as a standalone landing page for distressed property buyers.

Trusted by real estate professionals managing complex transactions, this form template turns buyer qualification from a scattered process into a streamlined workflow that protects all parties and moves deals forward faster.
