On the subject of scams - I think it's appropriate for home owners, especially those with a distressed property (preforeclosure, shortsale etc.) or anyone currently facing hardship and looking at selling their home as a distressed property or doing a loan modification to be very careful of a lot of scams and scam artists out there. When times are hard there's a lot of emotional turmoil that we face and sometimes we just want the easy way out. Just remember something that sounds too easy or too good to be true often is. Consult with professionals for sage advice especially when you're most vulnerable due to hardship conditions and you'll be much better off. Invest a little time today to ward off a lot of loss time in the future in the event you have to fix anything that goes awry if you fall a victim of a potential scam. As a REALTOR with years of experience in successfully listing and marketing homes for my clients and as a practicing Certified Short Sale Negotiator I can tell you Short Sales are definitely moving in the market. Banks have got their "act together" more so now than months earlier. The process is not as cumbersome on the home owner and by hiring a professional you can expect to be guided along the way to make the right decisions for you and your family with the least amount of inconvenience. Fear is our biggest obstacle. Partner with professionals, you wouldn't go to anyone less qualified if you had to do a colonoscopy on yourself or a loved one so why not leverage professional Realtors who have committed countless hours of training and experience to help you in the case of disposing assets as distressed property the right way.
