I've had a lot to say about Ocala Short Sales both in my Ocala real estate blog and in my Ocala Foreclosure Guide on my web site. I'm not crazy about short sales but I'm gradually changing my mind.

I'm very excited by the fact that my new broker, Coral Shores Realty, has a program through their affiliated title company where the title companies lawyer will prepare a short sale package and handle all the negotiations with the lender. I think this is a huge step in the right direction for sellers needing short sale help here in Ocala.

From the buyers side I still prefer foreclosures to short sales but I think a greater percentage are closing as Realtors get better at them and banks get more and better trained staff.

Still too many short sales never close and go to foreclosure. If you are a seller and want to know more about Ocala Short Sales feel free to contact me any time. I'd be glad to help.
