Short Sales 101

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices The Preferred Realty

 

About a month ago I taped this conversation with Short Sales expert Harry Yazbeck.  He's a very smart guy with a lot of really good information.  His whole purpose is to educate agentson the craziness of the process as well as manage a team of people who help CB agents manage their short sales.

He gives a nice insight into the hell that is the short sale and I hope you find interesting...

If they haven't already done it, I think that a continuing ed course in short sales should be manditory in this area.  I've yet to meet a listing agent with a clue - they don't all read the great posts or watch the videos here on Active Rain!  So thank you for doing your part!

We have taken a couple of courses, it sure helped.  I don't know how any agent would want to tackle  this mess without proper training!

Short Sales are such a nightmare - you need an expert like Harry on your side.
