short sale: 7 Reasons To Avoid Foreclosure! - 04/01/11 11:07 AM

Don’t be a statistic… Avoid Foreclosure!
 
You’ll be surprised to learn that many times when a homeowner is in distress they give up, without ever seeking an alternative to foreclosure.  Perhaps they don’t understand the process or feel like they no longer care, help is out there, all you have to do is ask.
I’m sure that it doesn’t feel like it now, but there will come a time when these current financially challenging times will be in the past and because a homeowner chose an alternative to foreclosure, they will be positioned to move on in the … (2 comments)

short sale: The Things That Make You Go Hmmm... - 02/25/09 07:11 AM
Why do banks/lenders who have to grant third party approval in a short-sale transaction often reduce the broker's compensation to a rate that is less than what the seller agreed to in their contract with the listing broker?
Yet, when these banks/lenders take possesion of homes through the foreclosure process, at an expense that often exceeds $20,000 - $30,000, do they offer compensation in amounts that far exceed what they typically authorize in a short-sale?
hmmm...
It almost appears that they want to discourage the real estate industry from trying to help homeowners avoid foreclosure, doesn't it.

short sale: Facing Foreclosure in Lake Mary,FL... Don't Wait, Please Ask for Help! - 02/01/09 04:34 PM
This isn't an easy post to write, I've been putting it off for a while.  Foreclosure isn't just a legal action there is a much bigger issue at work here.  The emotional impact that a foreclosure has on a family can be devastating, I've witnessed it first hand.
If you want to avoid foreclosure, please ask for help.  The entire foreclosure process can take 6 months from the first missed payment and there is no time to waste.

short sale: Short Sale Roller Coaster Ride - Don't Say I didn't Warn You... - 10/25/08 04:01 PM
Excitement...Frustration...Hope...Desperation...Anger...Disappointment and Disgust!  These are the feelings that a buyer is likely to have during the 3rd party approval process of a home that is a short sale...and that's during a sale THAT ACTUALLY ENDS UP CLOSING.
Once you write a contract on a short sale you could be waiting weeks and often months for an answer from the seller's lender.  Should you consider writing an offer on a short sale?  Please think about this first...
Short sales are not for everyone:
If you have a specific timetable to meet... Don't write a contract on a short sale.
If you can't accept the property in the condition that it is today... … (22 comments)

short sale: I've Given Up Trying To Show This Home, When Will The Listing Agent Give Up Too? - 03/02/08 09:18 PM
I've made several attempt to show a home, five to be exact and I'm sick of trying.  My last call yesterday to the listing agent basically told her that we will go and look at the house anytime the seller has available. Did I mention there is no lock box?  It has been over 24 hours and I still haven't received a call back yet. 
When is enough... ENOUGH?
