sarasota: Beware Short Sale Unilateral Contracts - 02/13/12 10:38 AM
Sarasota, FL - When selling your home as a short sale, beware of signing unilateral contracts. Unilateral contracts can be unfavorable for sellers who have taken their home off the market for a buyer who, in the end, doesn't follow through on purchasing the short sale.
What is a unilateral contract? How can you be on guard to avoid such an agreement?Unilateral contracts are one-sided contracts where one party (typically you - the seller) is bound to the terms of an agreement while the other party (normally the buyer) has the option to terminate the agreement without any obligation.
These types of agreements are common for real … (0 comments)

As an experienced Sarasota Short Sales Agent & Realtor, many clients come to me to discuss a short sale in Sarasota when their mortgage is in default, and they want to know if they should continue to pay property taxes and insurance.

sarasota: How does a Short Sale help the Homeowner? - 03/08/11 01:04 PM

Bradenton, FL - As a Short Sale Broker with Keller Williams Realty in Sarasota and Manatee County, I am aware there is a lot of confusion from homeowners that are considering a Short Sale.
Here are some brief points on the benefits of a Short Sale:
•1.       Financial Recovery will most likely be much sooner with a Short Sale compared to a Foreclosure.   A homeowner who completed a Short Sale may be able to secure new financing to purchase another home in as little as 2 years, compared to a potential 7 years if they do nothing and let the … (2 comments)

sarasota: Sarasota Short Sales Are Helping Owners Get Out of their Underwater Mortgage. - 03/04/11 04:52 AM
Sarasota, FL -  With an alarming number of foreclosures in our area, many homeowners are feeling trapped in their own home, because they cannot afford to sell their property for what they owe on their mortgage.  In a situation where a homeowner needs to sell their property, they are normally facing foreclosure if they are not able to complete a short sale.  A foreclosure will substantially damage a consumer's credit compared to the solution of a short sale.
