Ventnor Short Sales Worth The Trouble?

Ventnor Short Sales Worth The Trouble?

Absolutely!

Ventnor BeachCurrently there are nineteen single family Ventnor short sale listings for sale.  They range from a $99,000 row house to a $1.8 Million dollar custom bay front home. Short sales are a great opportunity first time buyer, Second buyer, or investor to buy a Ventnor property at a below market price. 

Successfully completing a short sale transaction is not that easy. Nationally 80% of all short sale transactions fail. Many of the Ventnor Short Sale listings for sale had been listed before and never sold. Many listings had a contract that fell through.  Having a short sale fall apart is disappointing for the Buyers but can be devastating for a Seller that’s trying to avoid foreclosure.

Ventnor Surf LessonsWhy do so many short sales fail? It’s because short sales are relatively new and very complex type of real estate transaction. An agent that is going to successfully navigate all the pitfalls of a short sale needs specialized education.  There are several agent certifications and designations for handling short sales. The vast majority of Realtors currently attempting to list or sell Ventnor Short Sales have no short sales certifications, designations, or any training what so ever!

In this market agents must have the best training to be successful.I have taken many courses for short sales. Last year I earned the National Association of Realtors SFR Certification (Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource). This year I earned the Certified Distressed Property Expert Designation. The training I received while earning these designations has helped me maintain a 100% success rate with getting these tricky transactions to settlement. I was also selected by Bank of America as the area agent to handle their new "Proactive Short Sale Program".

Thomas...great post. Short sale properties could be bought at great discounts if the home buyer is willing to wait it out.
