massachusetts: Just became a CDPE! - 05/08/11 08:53 PM
This week, I finished off the rest of the Online classes of the CDPE (Certified Distressed Property Expert) and took a long deep breath; took the final exam, yay! Passed on the first try!
This certainly was a great class I took and learned a lot of tips and "tricks" in doing short sales I never really encountered before, despite the fact I have been doing short sales successfully since 1992. I wholeheartedly recommend taking the CDPE designation if you're looking to close more short sales. In a lot of markets throughout the country, listing and selling short sales can … (5 comments)

massachusetts: Don't ever let someone BULLY YOU with "You can't do that!".... Verify first, then correct them! - 10/30/10 08:09 AM

massachusetts: Overpricing your home? I can't help you... - 07/30/10 07:04 AM
About a year ago, I was talking to a fellow agent about how we run our businesses. Probably, that was my first mistake right then and there. (Just Kidding)...
However, I told that agent, no matter what I tell sellers when I look at their property, I could hit them in the head with the "TRUTH Sledgeahammer" all day long, a lot of them STILL opt to list with yet another agent, who agrees to list their home for "a little overpriced" and they wind up for the most part, either NOT selling their home, or accepting an even LOWER price … (84 comments)
