I get dozens of emails and calls every week from homeowners who would just like the straight scoop on just what is a short sale. So I decided to record a brief video to help you understand the Short Sale Process. I hope that you find it useful and informative.
There are over a million real estate agents walking the planet and if you ask 10 of them what is a short sale and how do you successfully execute one you’d probably get 10 different answers. Then if you ask another question, that being, how many of them have actually successfully completed one you’d be very surprised.
Most real estate agents only found out about Short Sales in the last 18 months after they became the “in” thing in real estate. Then many agents found out that if they weren’t proficient that they actually can end up in trouble for their blunders and many simply do not have any desire to work in the Short Sale arena.

In that time I have learned quite a bit and one of the biggest things that I learned was to surround myself with a good, competent and experienced team of professionals who work together to effect a successful experience for my clients.
