Nationwide Short Sale Realtor Network Offers No Cost Services
Online, May 10, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Are you upside down on your home? Can't afford to keep it any longer? Are you in a financial hardship where you MUST sell your home? The Short Sale Specialist Network is a nationwide network of short sale realtors, offering FREE short sale help to home owners in financial hardship. The Short Sale Specialist Network started off working short sales in Jacksonville, FL in 2007. As the economy became more and more depressed, home owners looking for solutions all over the state started turning to them for help and guidance in the short sale process. They worked hard to find experienced short sale specialists all over the state to work Florida short sales and join their network. Growing quickly, in 2008 their network of short sale experts turned national.
Due to their "no cost" model, the Short Sale Specialist Network has grown dramatically and now consists of over 6,000 agents in all 50 states. For home owners who can no longer afford a property and are in a financial hardship situation, their state regulated agents are available to offer free short sale services. "The average foreclosure costs a lender $58,000, and they are usually more than willing to accept a lower payoff amount in order to cut their losses and avoid a costly foreclosure" Says Mike Linkenauger, Director of Operations.
"Short sales can be tricky" warns Linkenauger, "they are not part of a Realtors basic training, and inexperienced agents can do more harm than good". To insure the best agents, in addition to a short sale training course, members are also required to adhere to a strict code of ethics and practices. Agents who are members of The Short Sale Specialist Network are experts in organizing these type of transactions, and in a short sale all traditional closing costs, including brokerage fees, are typically paid by lenders. They also have many agents experienced in luxury real estate short sales and cover the entire country including California short sales.
