short sale specialist network: Tragic Mistakes From Banks Will Lead To Greater Losses - 03/02/12 02:41 AM

I just came across this post on another forum -
http://www.agentsonline.net/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/400294/Sho...
That agent on there literally said - "I received a short sale referral today from a bank. I've never done a short sale before and will partner with a more seasoned short sale agent on this potential listing." 
While I can respect and admire that he is at least looking for an agent to partner with and co-list it with, are these banks STUPID!  The BEST short sale agents out there are NOT the same agents they assign REO listings to!  How long will it take them to realize … (2 comments)

short sale specialist network: Our Divine Assignment As Short Sale Agents - 11/22/10 05:11 AM

Let's face it, in the grand scheme of things, working short sales as a real estate agent is not exactly an easy business to be in.  We are constantly at "war" with lenders who many times do not seem to care about their borrowers' financial situation, or improving their own companies bottom line by mitigating losses in an efficient and effective manner.  We regularly deal with short sale buyers who lack commitment and back out of transactions much of the time.  Sometimes it may even seem like we are part time therapists, forced to hear about homeowners' family troubles, illnesses, … (1 comments)
