LOCAL REALTOR EARNS PRESITIGIOUS CDPE DESIGNATION – HELPING HOMEOWNERS AVOID FORECLOSURE

By
Real Estate Agent with KELLER WILLIAMS REALTY - DPR TREC# 0558222

Brenda Rogers, Realtor and Senior Sales Associate with Coldwell Banker Apex, Realtors has received the designation of  "Certified Distressed Property Expert" (CDPE) to help families avoid foreclosure. The training is a rigorous 21+ hour course designed to help Realtors counsel homeowners, and help families avoid foreclosure.

Alex Charfan, founder of the Certified Distressed Property Expert Designation (CDPE) believes that in almost all cases the best person for a homeowner in distress to speak with is a well-informed Licensed Realtor® that has the tools needed to help that homeowner find the best solution for their situation.

Foreclosure is a devastating financial and emotional process for homeowners and their families to go through, and in many cases they do so alone and without help of any kind.

A Realtor who has earned the CDPE Designation has dedicated their time and effort to understanding the issues distressed homeowners are dealing with. The CDPE Professional is an agent who understands the full range of solutions and is ready to help. 

Short Sales are one option available to homeowners who have experienced a hardship. A short sale allows a property to be sold for less than the current loan balance. With plummeting property values, this can save many families from foreclosure and even bankruptcy. More and more lenders are willing to consider short sales because they are much less costly than foreclosures. 

National statistics show 1 out of 10 homeowners are in default on their mortgage with hundreds of homes in danger of foreclosing and hundreds of families in turmoil. While experiencing financial distress is difficult for any family, the process of finding a real estate professional shouldn't be. Selecting a CDPE agent ensures you are dealing with a professional ready to address your needs.
