Certified Distressed Property Expert Part 4
Well, I just finished up the CDPE course today and sent in my final exam. I have to say I’ve learned more about how Short Sales are processed in the last few weeks then I learned over the past couple of years. Not also do I now understand exactly what lenders are looking for when processing Short Sales, but I also have a network of 8,000 other Short Sale expert Realtors who are sharing there experience through the CDPE blog. The bottom-line is that if you are struggling with a mortgage that you can't afford or you are totally upside down on your home there is hope. Over the last 8 years Ashburn, Brambleton, Leesburg and Purcellville areas have exploded in growth and price! The last economic conference I attended which was given by Dr.Fuller stated that the Loudoun and Fairfax areas are at April 2004 home prices. That’s a lot of upside down homeowners! There is a silver lining in this housing mess and its doesn’t have to mean the destruction of your credit. Before you give up and let the bank foreclose on you contact me or another CDPE Realtor and let us walk you through your options.
Here are some myths about Short Sales that CDPE has debunked for me!
Myth No. 1: Short sales are impossible and never get approved.
Myth No. 2: Banks aren't accepting short sales but instead waiting for a bailout.
Myth No. 3: Homeowners must be behind on their mortgage in order to negotiate a short sale.
Myth No. 4: Homebuyers aren't interested in short sales.
Myth No. 5: Homeowners don't want to list their homes as short sales because of embarrassment.
Myth No. 6: Banks would rather foreclose than handle a short sale.
Myth No. 7: There isn't enough time to negotiate a short sale before foreclosure.
Which one of these myths I can debunk for you!
