Well, yes this IS another short sale blog. I have been reading other people's blogs and writing my own as well about those people professing to be short sale specialists or experts. I am one of those so called "experts" claiming that title from having taken the CDPE (Certified Distressed Property Expert) and having paid my hard earned $300 or whatever it was at the time. And I agree that just because someone took a course and paid some money doesn't a short sale expert make.
So I have been thinking a lot lately about what does make one an expert. Of course the advanced classes and actually seeing some deals through on both the listing and selling sides is of importance. But I think what counts the most is really very simple and FREE. It's called diligence. Stay on top of the deal and follow up, follow up, and follow up again via emails, phone calls, faxes, snail mail; whatever it takes. That will probably get the job done faster and with better results than anything.
