What are your options when you owe more than your home is worth?

short sale: Bank of America... finally wises up when it comes to working with back-up buyers!

You know how annoying it is... when you finally get a deal approved and you find out the buyer walked... it's not so bad when you have a back up buyer, unless of course you are dealing with Bank of America and they tell you that you have to START ALL OVER IN EQUATOR.

Do you realize that banks DON'T have to do short sales? And that they DON'T have to spend millions paying for staff to do short sales?

With that said, if all agents would BELIEVE the above facts and were to hold their ground they would get: … (5 comments)
