Somedays you just get lucky. You're in the right place at the right time. Like when I moved to Sacramento many years ago and went back to selling real estate. Right place, right time. Look at yesterday, I had hopped over to Macy's at the downtown Sacramento mall for a needed errand. Wow, is that place deserted. I stopped by the Eileen Fisher department, just as a stroll by, and holy cow on the sale rack was hanging a beautiful pair of black straight-leg skinny pants, bearing a tiny paisley print. It was in my size, too. Luck.
Originally $248. On sale for $67. But wait, it gets better.
In my bag I had two Macy's rewards certificates for $25 each, plus a $20-off coupon. I bought those $248 designer pants for 8 bucks. See, this was luck.
Just like some of the short sales I get approved . .. and because I keep hammering. Bank of America told me it would not lower the price for a short sale regardless of how faulty the roof. Fine, says I, we will call the insurance company and get the policy canceled for you because the roof is beyond its normal life expectancy, which we did not know until the roof inspection. Then you can pay for your very own expensive liability coverage.
It's stuff like this that made three short sale approvals roll in yesterday on 3 separate short sales, all of which were ripe with, oh, let's just call them challenges, including the Bank of America price reduction. You can read more about this and why any agent today would tackle a short sale when they're in such short demand in my personal blog today about What's In It For Agents To Do a Sacramento Short Sale?
