A RE agents survival is a short sale in disguise....

WHY?  READ ON.

It amazes me how many of the "seasoned agents" who go with the flow, who are astute enough, who realized the market was changing, and who adapted to this when it began...are still doing quite well.

That being said, learning to list, to process, to work with the banks, are the agents that are still doing well in this ever changing real estate market.

You hear that it's much more work than a conventional deal where there is not a short sale, however, with their longevity as real estate agents...they have adjusted their attitude, they have adjusted their marketing, they have adjusted their typical business plan.

They have studied and have learned just how to make this market work for them as career real estate agents.  They will make this current market situation work...

Just a little positivity to interject in this ever changing market.

Instead of constantly complaining about the market, THEY ARE WORKING IT!

Yes, this market is a challenge, however, with a great attitude and the ability to accept change, those of us that are in for the long haul, accept the change (you know that word, right?).

So, my advice to all is to accept the market as it is, to adapt to the changes in how the economy is, and to educate yourself to be able to assist your customers.

Have you taken classes to afford you the knowledge to assist your customers in listings?

Have you closed short sales with the assistance of a knowledgeable agent? 

Have you had trouble closing short sales due to agents who do not have the knowledge to facilitate a short sale deal?

Please give me your best advice of the short sale situation in your area.  Thanks
