Finally a Howard County short sale that was not the usual nightmare.

Maryland short sales

There was just one loan on the property and Wells Fargo was the lender.

This Howard County home was left in great condition by the sellers.

The property was listed on the MLS on November 4th 2010

The McIntire Team aggressively marketed this home with the same level of intensity as a regular sale.  Click here to see this listing.

4 offers were submitted. (3 were not even in the ballpark despite being aware that it was a multiple offer situation).

We were "Under Contract" in 8 days with a full price offer.

Short Sale approval was granted within 27 days.

Settlement occurred on January 14th 2011

Credit in full goes to Michelle Blaustien at  Sage Title in Ellicott City who took over all of the communications with the bank. She made contact immediately and submitted all the correct documentation in full. The case was assigned a negotiator very quickly and she built a good rapport from the get-go. Three times a week without fail she updated both myself and the buyers agent after each call or e-mail.

Prior to the listing I made my clients aware of what to anticipate and what their responsibilities were. They cooperated throughout the entire process will all of the bank requirements as they were requested, despite being in another State. 

The buyer's agent, the buyer's loan officer and the buyer were also key factors to the success of this sale by removing all contingencies quickly.

It was actually a pleasure to handle this sale. If all banks of Maryland Short Sales responded as quickly as Wells Fargo in this transaction, the market might start to recover and buyers would not eliminate them from their searches.

I am realizing that the right attorney-title-Realtor team can be the only way on some of these.

Gary- Experience of sitting on the phone for long long periods of time made me realize that I needed to delegate.

Excellent Schools, amazing communities and an incredible location is why many people choose to live in Central Maryland.
