Should I Short Sale my Home?
There are many factors to consider when thinking about short selling your home. Everyone's situation is unique and it's always in your best interest to learn everything you can before making a decision.
What type of loan(s) you have, are there tax ramifications, how do you protect yourself? I always suggest to my clients that seek legal and CPA advice to discuss their situation to see what the best strategy is for them.
My job is to help guide you through your options and help you make the best possible decision that works … (1 comments)

la quinta: Stop the Sales Calls...Please! - 12/27/11 02:36 PM
As A Realtor, we receive calls all day long...the problem is, we get so many calls trying to sell us on something and some of these salespeople are very pushy....but we "can't" not answer our phone, it could a potential buyer or seller.
The other day I got a call from a salesperson, about the search engine "Bing", when I told them they were the 3rd person to call me in the past week and that I was not interested, their response was "you don’t want more business"...ok now you are trying to make me feel bad about getting business? does … (2 comments)

la quinta: Buyer of Foreclosures overbidding and then re-negotiating the price - 12/19/11 11:24 PM
Buyer of Foreclosures overbidding and then re-negotiating the price
Last week I submitted an offer for my buyer on a bank owned listing, listed at $430,000. This home is located in a very desirable neighborhood and I knew it would go over asking despite the condition. 
There were 3 additional offers on the property and the bank, as usual asked for highest and best.  We submitted our offer, and we still lost out to a higher bidder…but I told my buyer not all is lost yet, as I am seeing a trend in our area with these type of “high … (3 comments)

Fraud Findings Statistics Report-FannieMae
https://www.efanniemae.com/utility/legal/pdf/fraudstats/fraudupdate0911.pdf
Got this Report today,  I was SHOCKED that California was #1.....OK...not really!!!  I found this report very interesting in breaking down the type of fraud that's been happening in getting mortgage loans.   At this point, there's no good in placing blame...it's time to clean up this mess and move forward and as long as we learn something from all this, we are moving in the right direction!
One thing to see by this when looking at the states that are on top of the list, they are also the same states that saw the insane equity … (0 comments)

Short Sales, they are changing…….again!

I have been listing and negotiating short sales for past 4 years, and one thing for sure...banks and investors keep changing their minds and each file is like doing your 1st one…each one different and no one works the same, even if it’s the same lender and same investor.

I called on a lender today to get an update on several of my files and spoke to an asset manager whom I have worked with on past files and we ended up having a very nice conversation.


During our talk, he informed … (6 comments)
