Great post. The second lien holder can be, and often does stop the sale. It is very frustrating when this is missed and the first lienholder refuses to offer anything to the second lienholder.
Short sales.......make you want to leave the business!!!!

lexington tn homes: Should you sell now or wait for your house to regain value? - 04/08/12 11:04 AM
If you sell and buy in the same market, it should be a wash.
Families are tired of putting their lives on hold, waiting for the right market to buy or sell. Who knows how long it will be before your home regains its lost value. But one thing is for certain, the interest rates can't possibly remain as low as they are right now. So buy now!!!!

lexington tn homes: You Wanted To Lowball The Sellers. Don't Be Upset That You Didn't Get The House. - 03/21/12 09:41 PM
It seems in today's market, most of the offers are low-ball. Some buyers will make offers on
several before getting one accepted. Only after losing their favorite home and their second
choice do they seemed determined not to lose their third choice.

lexington tn homes: How Much Will The Seller Take? What do you do when the comps don't support the asking price? - 10/30/11 10:52 PM
As Realtors, most often, we do not know what the seller will take. They may have told their listing agent at time of listing contract, but things change, circumstances change, financial situations change, and so many other personal factors could impact a sellers decision on any given day. Great blog Pam. Enjoyed reading and you made some very good points.

Abused and neglected children. Unfortunately, you can find them in all our communities.
It seems unbelievable this could happen in our small, little, rural southern town or for that matter in Anytown, USA. But it does, everyday.
For the last two years, I have had the privilege of working with an organization in our community known as CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates).
The mission of CASA is to recruit, train, and supervise community volunteers to be advocates for abused and neglected children in the court system. Seems pretty amazing to find volunteers willing to take on such a task. Well, we … (2 comments)
