Around this time last year, I was really beginning my foray into the real estate world. To get business and let people know about Anna Domzalski - The Realtor, I decided to door knock my neighborhood. It was then that I realized that the reality of people being underwater in their homes, short sales, and foreclosures was not something you just saw on the 6 pm news. It was real and it was in my backyard. It was then that I made the decision to write a short, but informative, book about what somebody can do if they need to short sell their home and how I could help. Below is the adapted introduction to that book and more about my experience.

Introduction to Seller’s Guide to Short Sales & Foreclosures in Bucks County, PA

I will never forget the day a few months ago when I was out knocking on doors in my neighborhood. My goal was to introduce myself to my neighbors and offer any help.

I came to one house and, when the door was answered, the woman began to laugh. I smiled, introduced myself, and asked her if she had any real estate needs that I could help with. She laughed harder. I smiled and waited, feeling awkward.

Then, she began to explain. Her and her husband bought their house in 2005 and they paid too much. She lost her job and could not find a new job. So, she had to return to school. Her husband works three jobs to pay the mortgage and she works part-time at a hospital since they will pay for her new nursing degree.

They cannot sell the house and they do not have the money. They do not want to stay because it is such a burden and now they hate the home. It was then that I realized where the need in our county is.

All around Bucks County, families are struggling in the same way, making the same choices, and feeling the same pain. The goal of this book is to answer questions, provide direction, and to give hope.

This is a very difficult time in your life. I understand this. My goal is not to overwhelm with about the process, but to get you started and moving in a direction. My hope is that it will help you make the really hard choices that are currently facing your family. Then, with your real estate agent, which I would be happy to be, you can go into all the details and get through the process.

So ask yourself: if I showed up at your door, would you laugh? Do you need real estate help? If so, it is time to begin the journey of finding your next step.
