Phoenix Real Estate Trends-September 2011-Buyers or Sellers Market?
When looking at total sales,September ended up being somewhat of a dissapointment, with sales taking a 9.4% dip, ending up at 7,892. This is almost 10% off the 2011 average of 8,765. That being said, there were several areas that improved in the past 30 days, as you will see from this report.
ARMLS recently released the numbers for September/2011 in their monthly STAT Report, and they are very interesting. Here is a breakdown of what happened in September/2011 in the Metro Phoenix Real Estate Market:
Sales (Month over Month)- Sales were down 9.4% (compared … (4 comments)

phoenix short sale realtor: 5 Words This Phoenix Short Sale Agent Loves To Hear-"I'm Just Following Investor Guidelines" - 09/22/11 01:32 AM
5 Words This Phoenix Short Sale Agent Loves To Hear-"I'm Just Following Investor Guidelines"
If you've done more than a few short sales, you've undoubtedly heard your negotiator mumble these 5 words. To me, this is another way of saying, "You are right, I was wrong, but I have no other choice but to put the blame on someone else (i.e., the investor). As an experienced Phoenix short sale agent, I look at these 5 words as an opportunity for you to win.
Let me give you a quick example. Last week we were informed by a negotiator at GMAC … (8 comments)

Our Team Of Phoenix Short Sale Agents Saved Another Family From Foreclosure Today!
I can't begin to tell you how proud I am of our team of Phoenix short sale agents. Today, we closed our 12th deal in the past 60 days, and this one was particularly sweet!
The sellers owed $465,000 on their 1st, and $115,000 on their 2nd (which was a HELOC). To make a long story short, we received an offer on July 3rd for $380,000, and closed it today. You heard that correctly. Opened and closed in 65 days! The best part is that we ran … (8 comments)

Is Your Agent Advising You To Stay Away From Phoenix Short Sales Listings? (Warning: Apologize for the length of this article, but I hope it's well worth the read)...
If so, they are hurting your chances of finding a home in the foreseeable future. Today, I received the most interesting phone call from a buyer on a Phoenix short sale listing in my inventory.
She was frantic, asking if I could get her in to see the home ASAP. I asked if she was working with an agent. Her response was, "I was working with an agent, but I fired … (12 comments)

Hot off the presses! This premier Phoenix short sale agent team has gone 8/8 in the past 30 days, and they're damn proud of it! Despite all of the devious tactics their competitors (the lenders/servicers/banks) tried, the team pulled through with a stunning perfomance!

Team Manager Bob Hertzog said that "If it weren't for my dedicated team of professionals, we would have never pulled it … (11 comments)

Is It Legal For A Lender To Give A Phoenix Short Sale Agent Distressed Seller Leads?
More and more, we are hearing of lenders "partnering up" with certain big-name real estate brokerages and designations (i.e. CDPE). Most of the blogs that I've read recently talk of a program whereby certain lenders will send a letter to a homeowner in distress, and will give them a list of several real estate agents that carry the CDPE designation. The borrower may, if they so choose, call one of the "preferred" agents of the lender. Several of my Phoenix short sale clients have received … (8 comments)

Real Estate Ethics 101-Another Day In The Life Of A Phoenix Short Sale Agent
I have a Phoenix short sale listing on a beautiful home, priced at $399,900. This past weekend, we received 3 offers on the home. Our first choice ended up being an all-cash offer at $379,000. Our 2nd choice was a financed offer at $380,000, and the 3rd came in at $350,000.
To give a little background, the home has polybutylene pipes throughout, and this was disclosed in the Realtor Remarks section of the MLS. To cover our butts, before accepting any of the offers, I called all … (8 comments)

My Phoenix Short Sale Client Just Received A $20,000 Check From Chase!
As some of you may know, I've written articles of the trials and tribulations we have gone through in the new Chase "Foreclosure Outreach" or "Short Sale Outreach" Program.
Today, I'm happy to announce that this program is indeed "for-real", and below is a copy of the Final HUD to prove it (sensitive information has been removed).
Please look at line 506, and notice that the Chase Seller Incentive that was paid to my client was $20,000. Not a bad deal for short-selling your home, huh?

Phoenix Short Sale Realtors Need To STOP WITH THE B.S. MARKETING!
Today I received an email from Homes.com, saying that there was a "new question" regarding Phoenix short sales. I've never been a member, but I decided to stop in and read the question. Following is a question posted by a homeowner looking at a possible Phoenix short sale... (please pardon the grammar/spelling, I'm only quoting him)...

Is Chase Really Giving Phoenix Short Sale Homeowners $20,000?
This was the question I received last week from someone who had received one of the now-famous letters (famous thanks to great blogs written by Tony Marriott, Bryant Tutas, and Katerina Gassett).
Unfortunately, I hadn't heard of the program until receiving this phone call. Naturally, I didn't get too excited. I asked him to send me a copy of the letter, and I'd take a look at it. So, he did, and here it is...
Naturally, I was astounded when I actually read it. I thought to myself, "There must be … (4 comments)

phoenix short sale realtor: Two BPO's On The Same Phoenix Short Sale With A 60% Difference In Value? What The Heck Is Going On? - 02/09/11 11:58 PM
Two BPO's On The Same Phoenix Short Sale With A 60% Difference In Value? What The Heck Is Going On?
Lately, our biggest challenge with our Phoenix short sale listings is fighting BPO values. In the declining market we are in, it is to be expected.
With that being said, I recently had an issue with a BPO agent (actually a Broker) that absolutely blew my mind.
I have a Phoenix short sale that has been listed since June/2010. After dropping the price 5% every two weeks, we finally received an offer for the home at $55,000 5 MONTHS after listing … (19 comments)
