So, Why are we doing Short Sales?

So, Why are we doing Short Sales?

Is this enough to make your blood boil?

Aren't we happy to "help" these short sellers?

Actually, we are helping them while we help the banks...

 There is something about this whole thing that bothers me, and almost makes me want to stop doing short sales.  But, ...  then I think of those sellers, and realize that I am heling them start over.

I have seen this video before. It really is aggravating. I wonder how the deals work for the other banks

Carlie - It is amazing, isn't it?  How many banks were able to slide in on this?  Not many, I'm sure....

the Banks are the ones that rule..pretty much everything .. and everyone.. they are good at what they do now aren't they...I have seen this before.... and it really makes me sad that more people don't get it..

Banks.. power and money... they own it lock stock and barrel..

While it is sad to see that some people are making big profits, there is still the little guy that can't pay their mortgage that needs some help, and a short sale is the best that we can or are able to do right now.

Wow - that was interesting! I can't believe the tax payer is flipping the bill.

We really do need financial reform in our government.  Seems like they have forgotten who sent them to Washington, DC, unless, it's time for them to be re-elected.  Do they really think we don't notice what they are doing?  Sad, very sad.

It's hard to believe that this is actually going on, and most of us are totally unaware!

"I listen for a living." It's all about you.

Absolutely maddening how profits are being distributed back to the people who are causing this mess.
