Will federal short-sale rules speed deals? Lenders have until April 5 to implement procedures for complying with federal short-sale guidelines released in November. In this video interview with REALTOR® Magazine, NAR Managing Director of Regulatory Policy Jeff Lischer walks members through the new rules and the forms that go with them, and shares his assessment of what their impact could be.

Let's hope so.

I think I'm actually starting to see signs of expediency now with my short sales.

As am I.  Some of them actually seem like they are getting easier rather than harder.  I had one approved through 2 lenders in a week!  COULD NOT BELIEVE IT!  Closes tomorrow!
