foreclosure: CDPE - Certifiable Distressed Property Egomaniac - 09/03/09 06:09 AM
I'm really not sure what goes on in the CDPE (Certified Distressed Property Expert) class.  I've heard the class is excellent.  So good in fact, that some agents I know are taking it twice.  I think that's just great.  I really wish I had time to go, however, I'm pretty busy managing 30 or so short sales at time.  Those pesky closings get into the way. 
In all seriousness, I'm for education and I'm one the biggest proponents of it, considering how there is almost no actual education given to Reatlors coming into the business, let alone something that would discuss … (6 comments)

After a year full of short sales and feeling totally fed up with them, I've come full circle.  I'm loving short sales for the satisfaction I get, similar to a first time home buyer.  I'm enjoying the negotiations and the process... at least on the listing side.  If you have short sales you want to refer, call me!

foreclosure: Foreclosure Trends In Georgia Real Estate - 03/24/08 08:05 PM
If you turn on the news today and listen to latest on the housing crisis you'll find that in March, Georgia will add another 7300 or so foreclosure/REO properties in the next 90 days.   While the inventory for foreclosures / REO properties increases (there are 214 available today in Lawrenceville), there is a great new trend occurring, that make me believe we'll be coming out of the Atlanta version of the housing "crisis."
