Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource (SFR)

I am now SFR certified which is the only certification recognized by the Board of Realtors for those of us working with short sale or foreclosure buyers and sellers of real estate.

After working with clients on the purchase or sale of distressed properties and short sales I was glad when the SFR certification recently became available.

The Tide May Be Turning At Myrtle Beach!

The Myrtle Beach, SC area real estate market seems to follow trends of the Atlantic coast of Florida.  According to several Florida sources real estate that IS NOT IN FORECLOSURE has begun to sell. If past trends stay true Myrtle Beach should begin to see sales improving during the Spring of 2009. Since the majority of real estate sales depend on buyers ability to obtain a mortgage we will have to wait and see if lenders continue to block the recovery.

Short Sale or Not

Found a great short sale deal for my real estate buyer clients. After doing my homework found the mortgage owed is over $300,000 but asking price is $169,000 contingent on bank approval. My thought is that the real estate agent that listed the property knows the bank will not accept an offer that low but is hoping for a bidding war between prospective buyers and the bank.
