We are experienced with helping homeowners better
position themselves for their financial future by pulling
them out from underneath a home that is underwater.

  • How can a short sale help me?
  • What can I expect?
  • How much does it cost me?
  • How long does it take?

  Here are some of the frequent questions we are
asked, and some important facts to understand;

Recent studies indicate 25% of homeowners
across the country are "underwater", and foreclosure
filings in 11/2009 were up 22% from 11/2008.

  Lenders are facing record breaking defaults,
and unemployment across the country is at a record high.
Lenders know "Short Sale" programs save
them money over the expensive foreclosure process.

  (A short sale occurs when the bank accepts
something "short" of the balance of the note)

  Short sales can be mutually beneficial to lender and
homeowner. Banks save money on a completed short sale
in comparison to the costly foreclosure process.

  (Attorney fees, maintenance, possible damage
to the property during the marketing period,
the eviction process, repossession of property,
selling property once in foreclosure)

If you are a Homeowner caught up in the
housing crisis, it's important to know you have choices
that can prevent you from foreclosure or bankruptcy,
and that if we successfully negotiate the transaction, you
will not owe us a dime! It is nothing to be ashamed of,
and we can HELP!
