Confessions of a Short Sale Agent: I Already Hate Your Bank
THE LOVE HATE RELATIONSHIP WITH BANKS.
I love this post by Tni LeBlanc. Finding humor when we are helpless and sometimes hopeless is a fine art indeed.
And if you don't hate that bank today, you surely will tomorrow. The traditional "love hate relationship" is alive and well. Enter into a short sale transaction as a listing agent, selling agent, buyer or seller, and you will learn to hate that bank. The bank on the other hand, LOVES the tax money they were handed by the government to perpetuate their inefficiencies and exercise of raw power.
And all it took was a few "measly handouts from the banks to a few Congressmen". Congressmen work cheap, don't they??

Confessions of a Short Sale Agent: I Already Hate Your Bank
I know you hate your bank. They've taken you through hell. You're thinking about:
•· That crappy loan and the insane interest rate adjustment
•· The no-doc loans they sold that sunk your neighborhood home values
•· The robo-call reminders to make your payment on the 2nd of the month
•· All that bail out money they got and the down payment you'll never get back
•· The way they toyed with you about a loan modification
So now you are thinking of a short sale and you think no one could hate your bank more. But, you're wrong. I hate your bank, already. Although you hate your bank, you can't possibly hate them more than me. I hate them all day long. You go to work, come home, and hate your bank at night and on the weekends. But not me, I wake up in the morning, and I hate your bank. I go to bed at night, and I hate your bank.
And, I especially hate your bank during business hours. You know how they said they lost your paperwork? When they pull the same thing during your short sale, I'll be right there, hating them for you. I can re-fax it to all of their 15 secret fax numbers with the flick of my wrist. I can call back tomorrow and the next day with my date stamped fax receipt. When they incorrectly value your home, I can flood them with a slew of market information that will make them shudder. When they make a short sale offer that does not relieve you of all personal responsibility for the debt, I'll let them know how we do things in California. And why? Because I hate them - - that's what I do.
I already know what they've done to your friend, your neighbor, and to you. And, although the bank loves dealing with you, they hate dealing with me. Because, they know I hate them, already. . .
