Has anyone else received the latest automated calls from the nehemiah corporation to add the down payment assistance into the bail out plan? I just received one call on my office line and another call on my cell phone. I was wondering how did they get my number but I do recall posting a few of my listings onto their website.

How many Michael Jackson jokes do you know?

Mike Jackson (Realty World Global) — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 20:11:39 -0500

It was about the 2nd grade is when I started to receive an influx of jokes regarding Michael Jackson the one glove bandit. I remember being some what of a celebrity when my name was announced at the hospital or my freshman year in high school, or having my name announced when I played baseball. I will give you the option to say what you think the answer is behind the jokes.

So here is the list:

1. Why does Michael Jackson wear one glove?

2. Why does Michael Jackson always grab his crotch while dancing?

3. (I heard this one from a seller) What did the mother say to Michael Jackson when he was at the beach?

4. Why did adult parents keep sending their kids to never land ranch?

5. Why do you think I go by the name Mike instead of Michael?

If you have some Michael Jackson Jokes that I have not heard of and I think they are funny I will add them to the list?

I'm baffled at this second lien holder.

Mike Jackson (Realty World Global) — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 18:53:36 -0500

I'm currently in a short sale review with a few offers on a home in california and the first will get paid and the second which is a subsidiary of the first has rejected two offers and will not counter and let us know what their bottom line is. They would rather foreclose tomorrow than let us know where we need to be, and they want the seller to do a promissory note for the remaining balance of the lost. Is there any reason why the second would rather foreclose than get money? I don't understand.

Short Sale Approved and Closed on 4/15/2008

Mike Jackson (Realty World Global) — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 12:02:57 -0500

Option One Mortgage was the lender that had both liens on the property that I had listed and successfully closed on April 15th, 2008. The buyers agent sent in an offer on February 28th, 2008 and a few other offer came in around the same time. This agent must have given his buyer the approximate wait time for the process of a short sale like I told him because all of the other buyers were nowhere to be found.

Fortunately Option One was the easiest bank I've had to deal with in regards to an approval, and they didn't ask for a promissory note or delay with a second or 3rd appraisal or BPO. Not once did I physically speak to the assigned negotiator he emailed me the approval, and gave us a closing date of April 25th , 2008.

For the agents not showing short sales to your buyers you might be missing out on good deals with agents that are experienced with short sales and giving you an approximate accurate time frame for approval. What do you have to lose if you find another property or if the short sale closes.
