Wellington Short Sale Agents!- Chase Short Sale Approval in THREE DAYS!!!
This one is for the history books! We did our happy dance with this short sale approval!
Negotiating the offer between the buyer and the seller took longer than it took us to negotiate the short sale with Chase and get the approval letter for the short sale.
The purchase price of the house was $750,000.
Nestor did a great job getting the seller a fully paid and satisfied lien release as well as NO deficiency to the seller! And he got it in writing from Chase!
This was a CASH transaction, no appraisal and Chase owned the note so it was only brought to committee which of course saves time. We also double ended it. The buyer did have their own attorney to represent them and also an agent who was not licensed in the state of Florida.
We closed within a few days of getting the acceptance letter and the buyers now have an Equestrian Center home for the Equestrian seasons here in Wellington Florida.
Here is what the sellers wrote after the closing:
Hello everybody!
We wanted to take a few minutes to say goodbye!
We sold our home today to a very excited first-time homeowner. The reason we want to say farewell is because we tried to be involved with this community and got to know many of you as homeowners and friends.
We bought at the peak and saw the prices drop almost 50%, it was a bad investment for us, just bad timing. We truly wanted to make of Carriage Pointe our home for many years to come..., however we had no idea what we were getting into (first time home owners) and although this homes are great and we enjoyed enormously our house we did not expect to have such high rates of tenants, then the maintenance and investment in the community were compromised due to today's economy and just did not add-up for us, so we have found a buyer for our home, of course we were "under-water", fortunately the bank forgave us for the difference and we are free. If any of you need advice, I recommend to do research and then some more research, because every single situation is different and particular. I truly wish all of you the best. For some the best is to find some kind of arrangement with their banks, for some will be walking-out, short selling or in some cases even foreclosing.
The market will pick-up, eventually, lucky those who have the time, money and patience to wait.
To Jim, mil gracias. To all who have the best interest in CP, thank you. CP is in good hands. It was nice to meet you all, the nice and the ugly and even to the ugly I wish good luck...
I also wanted to recommend my realtor, she specializes in short sales, is very professional and knows her business.
She understands the process, the way different banks work with short sales, showcased my home very well, negotiated with my bank for them to forgive us for the difference and I understand will be doing some seminars on short sales soon.
Please know that I am not recommending a short sale for your property and some loans don't qualify for this type of sale anyway.
You can visit them at: http://www.wellington-luxury-homes.com; in their website you will find their contact information as well as some articles about short sales.
If any of you ever need to contact me or Richard, please feel free to e-mail or call @ (561) 503-0492. God bless you all!
Sincerely,
Margaret
Cordially yours

Nestor & Katerina, I just wanted to thank you again for all your effort and hard work. I can truly say that I have never had a real estate agent work as diligently and persistently as you both did selling this condo. I really thought it would be impossible to sell the condo in this brutal market, but you somehow came up with multiple buyers and put a deal together. I will highly recommend you to anyone I know who is in the market to buy or sell property in the Palm Beach area. You guys are the BEST!!! Thanks Again!! Sincerely, Robert Tutunjian
Dear Nestor and Katerina,
I wanted to take a few minutes to write this short note and express my deepest thanks and gratitude for helping us with the sale of my home recently in Wellington, FL.
I was not entirely sure of how my situation with a home that was totally "upside down" was going to unfold, and I had no experience with the short sale process. There was very little information available on this subject on the internet, and the Realtors I spoke with prior to engaging you seemed to know even less than I did. You were clearly very knowledgeable about the process, and were able to describe the general flow of how things would work, and answered all my questions. You were able to put my mind at ease about the entire process, and made me feel confident that we could complete the short sale transaction. I am especially grateful for your prompt responses, and you were very easy to get in touch with whenever we needed to.
I wanted to thank you for dealing with the PMI company when they nearly derailed the whole deal. You were able to expertly guide the process past this snag and get them to accept the offer. And need I mention the last minute near disaster with the buyers on the night before closing? Yet again you intervened quickly and made sure that this transaction was completed and went through closing the next day.
I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone, as you carried yourself professionally at all times. You helped my family through a rough spot in our lives and helped us move on to a new and brighter future. I would be glad to speak to anyone in the future if they ever would like a reference.
Sincerely,
James Diehl
FLORIDA SHORT SALE SUCCESS REQUIRE LISTING AGENTS WITH EXPERIENCE AND DEDICATION.
A TESTIMONIAL FOR KATERINA and NESTOR GASSET of International Properties and Investments, Inc. in Wellington, Florida.
The first time I read in one of Katerina's posts wherein she stated that she and Nestor have a 100% successful track record closing their short sale listings, all I could say was WOW! To say that I was impressed would be an understatement. I know how difficult short sales can be for sellers, buyers, listing agents and buyers agents. I also know that, when compared with the complexity and degree of difficulty involved in listing short sales, a Buyers Broker's job is far easier.
Our job, as a Buyers Broker, may be complicated with new and different procedures for each listing, each approving lender(s), each property, etc. However, it's a piece of cake when compared with the complexity of the listing side of short sale transactions.
GO WITH EXPERIENCE! I am a firm believer in the value of experience, particularly for financial advice, products or services.
If a home buyer is in need of short sale real estate brokerage services, they should be seeking the services of a broker with successful short sale experience.
If a real estate agent or broker is in need of referring a home owner/seller in need of short sale services, it makes sense to make the referral to an experienced broker with successful short sale experience.
Last October 2008, I received a request for information about short sales. However, the property happened to be in Florida. So, I did what I always do when in need of help with any real estate matter in Florida, I contacted Bryant Tutas of Tutas Towne Realty, Inc. I refer all matters involving Florida real estate to Bryant Tutas. If it's a buyer, Bryant will either help the buyer himself or, if the buyer is not in his area or for some reason he can't help the buyer himself, Bryant will contact an agent who can.
When I contacted Bryant about the short sale prospect, he immediately contacted Katerina Gasset who is in the geographical area of the property. Katerina took over, listed the property, worked through a myriad of problems and finally, last week closed the sale.
I LOVE FEEDBACK. I got better and more frequent feedback from Bryant and Katerina about a referral about 1000 miles away than I often get from agents 10 miles away. I love feedback. Bryant kept me posted and Katerina would call when things looked like they might not work out.
THERE WERE A FEW PROBLEMS:
Ball 1. The property was listed for about $270,000. No problem getting a contract with the seller. The bank turned it down.
Ball 2. Cash buyer made offer of $235,000. Bank countered to $260,000. Buyer walked.
OVER THE MONTHS, THINGS BECAME A TAD TEDIOUS.
Strike 1. Tenant refused lockbox, access and made it generally difficult to show.
Strike 2. Owner tried to cancel listing and wouldn't communicate with broker.
NOT OUT YET!
The property went under contract in July and the tenant moved out in August. It appeared from the feedback that Katerina got tough with the owner who got tough with the tenant.
Over the period of the past 11 months, when the property would go under contract, Katerina or Bryant would call me with an update. Of course, they also called when a contract would fall apart.
The property finally closed for $235,000, the same price the bank rejected months ago.
I WROTE THIS RE REFERRAL OFF ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO. I underestimated the tenacity of Katerina and Nester. They are a powerful, experienced, hard working team who know short sale processes as well as anyone in their market. Of course Bryant Tutas is in the same league which is why this referral had a successful outcome.
LAST WEEK, I got e-mail from Bryant that the property closed and the check was on the way.
THE MESSAGE IS, when making buyer or seller referrals, go with experience and folks who will keep you in the loop. You just might be getting a referral check in the mail.
THIS ONE IS LIKE FOUND MONEY
