realtor md: Short Sales Short Tales . . A Fax Rant - 10/12/11 11:04 AM

Fax Rant . . .  You Got To Be Kidding me!
This is one of my favorites stories to tell about short sales.
Scenario:
We were exasperated that the bank will not understand our situation.
We had a full approval to close this particular short sale but. . then we lost the buyer.
In some cases, this will happen because of the time effect from a short sale. .it just takes a long time. .
We quickly put the property back in the market and we found a new buyer rather quickly. . .after all , it was an approved … (5 comments)

Very commendable from their part. .
They had no intention of coming back to the USA . .and their credit rating does not mean jack in their native country. .
They just wanted to do … (3 comments)

realtor md: PG County Maryland Market Sales Report - 05/24/11 04:33 AM

Market Report For PG County Maryland  Let's face it.. from April 2010 to (now)April 2011 the numbers on PG County are down a little over 30%.
That is not good news for sellers holding over for their property values to go up once again. .
Based on these charts I can easily conclude that we have not seen the bottom of the market yet.
The most telling chart is the difference in numbers between pending sales and actual closed sales.
It is my opinion that pending sales give an inconclusive picture of the market because of … (0 comments)

realtor md: Buying a home in Maryland or finding a home in Maryland . . .what should you expect from your Realtor! - 07/07/08 02:46 PM
Fernando, the sellers were supposed to clean the property before we went to closing. . .the house stinks!
The property is to be vacant and clear of trash and debris at the time of settlement.
I don't understand why this is so unclear for so many sellers?
Your junk is not wanted!
Frozen cans of paint over and over again. .after the last 3 winters.. . is not something that you should leave with the property.
                                                           “broom clean.” means that!!!!
Take a BROOM and CLEAN IT!
The degree of cleanliness required of the sellers should be reasonably . .
just clean the property out.
