northern virginia short sale agent: How Closely is Bank of America Paying Attention to Their Short Sales? - 07/26/10 10:39 AM
How closely is Bank of America paying attention to their Short Sales?  For that matter, how closely are Northern Virginia Short Sale Listing Agents paying attention to their Short Sale Listings?   Not close enough.  That's the answer.
Take a Short Sale scenario that I have been dealing with from the Buyer's perspective.  We submitted an offer on a $245K short sale of $234K asking for all closing costs paid.  Bank of America, the first trust holder, countered at $245K and said they would continue to pay closing costs.  My buyers held steady at $234K.  BOA came back one last time with $245K … (10 comments)

northern virginia short sale agent: The Buyers of Today's Marketplace Demand a Buyer's Agent That Knows How to Navigate the Current Market - 07/24/10 09:36 AM

northern virginia short sale agent: As Busy as I Am as a Short Sale Listing Agent, I Still Have the Time to Return Shopping Carts to Their Designated Holding Pins - 10/16/09 10:25 AM
As busy as I am a short sale listing agent, I still have time to return shopping carts to their designated holding pins.  It's never seemed like anything of life or death consqeuence would happen by taking the time to return a shopping cart to it's rightful spot. Somehow, I still manage to get my short sale listing contracts to the banks, call negotiators, get them approved and get them to settlement on days when a shopping cart needs to be returned.
