So, if you truly want to avoid foreclosure, I am trained to properly “Package” your deal in a way that makes the lender say YES without lolly-gagging around. I have heard all the horror stories out there about the lenders not moving quickly enough, but it's not because they don't want to, it most likely was caused by the listing agent not knowing what the lender's need with the offer. I offer my services to Listing agents and Buyer's agents at no cost, the lender is happy to pay me for my services. If you are my Buyer, you already have the best agent with the knowledge of how to approach the lender. If you have chosen a property listed by another agent, I will help that agent package the short sale deal correctly at no charge. I really want to be a part of the solution to this crazy market, by allowing the process to proceed more quickly than it would otherwise. If you need to sell your property, but owe more than the market price, I am offering a Free Consultation to YOU, in which I will explain to you how the new Debt Relief Act of 2007 and 2008 can help you personally.
