foreclosure: Are Short Sales a salvation or a curse for the Seller? - 05/28/09 01:48 PM
Short Sales, Foreclosures, Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure, is there a difference when talking about credit? According to my credit expert from First American Credco, the answer is no. Please take a minute to look over my post about the effects each will have on your credit and ability to purchase a home in the future. Current home owners that are contemplating a short sale should get some legal advice first. I hope you will find information that is valuable when deciding the way to go in a bad situation. It is my opinion that Realtors can help their prospective clients

foreclosure: Buying a foreclosure, the right way and the wrong way - 02/02/09 03:24 PM
Have you thought about buying a foreclosure for you new home? Do you have clients that think they can make the deal of the century by purchasing a foreclosure? Have you been watching those 3 a.m. infomercials that tell you that you can be the next Donald Trump-type millionaire in just 34.6 days by buying foreclosures for only pennies on the dollar?
