cape coral short sale: Lee County Rocket Docket - 06/02/11 01:53 PM
Is The Lee County Rocket Docket Over?The previous ‘rocket docket’ is said to be over in Lee County, Florida. What is this Rocket Docket?Over the past couple of years the civil courts of Lee County have been handling foreclosure files quickly or also known as the ‘rocket docket’. The idea was to process files quickly as to not clog up the judicial system. The state supplemented the local court system with funds to allow them to hire additional staff for case management and to hear foreclosure cases. One possible problem that came along with this was cases being foreclosed on unjustly … (3 comments)

cape coral short sale: Cape Coral Short Sale Help - 01/05/11 10:41 AM
Cape Coral short sales are still abundant in and around Cape Coral, Florida. I've been personally handling short sales in SW Florida since the end of 2006. Anyone in our area who claims to have been handling them prior to that timeframe is full of it. Why? Well because in the early 2000s everything was appreciating at such a fast rate that no one needed a short sale. We did however experience a similar bust in both the early 80s and early 90s ~ see a pattern?
So back to my point of this article. I get at least one call … (2 comments)

cape coral short sale: Cape Coral short sale process / Re-visited ;) - 09/08/09 02:16 PM
Cape Coral short sale process / Re-visited ;)I previously wrote the response below to a fellow active-rainer who apparently handles short sales completely different than myself, or any other agents who I've known to actually close them. She has since DELETED my comment so I felt compelled to post this on my page.Her blog post was all about multiple offers and even suggested that our fiduciary responsibility was with the bank, instead of the seller. As a potential short sale seller, wouldn’t you rather have an agent looking out for YOUR best interest, and not your lenders? Obviously you’d want to … (8 comments)

Attention Banks with Real Estate in Cape Coral, Florida

cape coral short sale: Cape Coral and Fort Myers Foreclosures - 02/26/08 10:50 AM
I just finished reading an article put out by The Associated Press over at MSNBC about the amount of FORECLOSURES. Looks like our area - Cape Coral / Fort Myers - ranks #1 according to data supplied by RealtyTrac.  You can click to read that article here.
Why all the foreclosures? I was asked just that last week by a woman who found me on my Cape Coral Real Estate website. She wanted to know why there were so many SHORT SALES and FORECLOSURES in our area.
There are a few reasons for it.
One reason is that real estate is cyclical. … (6 comments)

cape coral short sale: Cape Coral Short Sales SELL - 01/29/08 10:10 PM
There is a lot of confusion out there about short sales in our current market - and I'm sure many other markets as well.
To clear things up some, I'm going to share a personal experience. In the past week, I've had 3 of our short sale listings close. All three of these short sales were single family homes in Cape Coral, Florida.
Yes, they all took just over 100 dom (days on market) start to finish but that is not bad considering how long a short sale can take.  Many 'normal' sales take longer than that.
Two of the listings actually would have closed much … (3 comments)
