remax: Is a Short Sale right for you? 7 options to help you decide. Notes for a Realtor to give proper counseling. - 11/14/08 07:34 AM
How to Diagnose a Short Sale

To help sellers navigate the difficult world of distressed sales, you must be able to identify and evaluate all of
your client's options.
Lori Cox, ABR®, CRB, who instructed a full-day foreclosure seminar Wednesday in Orlando, said that sellers
generally have seven options:
1. Refinancing
2. Selling and bringing cash to closing to cover the loss.
3. A lender workout.
4. A deed in lieu of foreclosure.
5. A short sale
6. A foreclosure.
7. Simply walking away.
"Walking away is never the best option but it might be their only option," Cox said.

remax: Schaumburg tax bills go down on many homes! - 10/13/08 09:08 AM
My own and many of my clients Schaumburg tax bills have gone down from the 2006 bill for the latest 2007 tax bill, due on November 3, 2008. Mine went down about 7%. The school districts came in much lower than last year, as well as several other municipal taxing bodies. Since it was a tri-ennial reassessment year, we were all expecting major increases.
