How Dare You .......




Reader's Question:

Short Sales are terrible. Why would you be promoting such a thing? They have ruined the values in my neighborhood and are destroying neighborhood comparables.

Christian's Response:

First and foremost, I do not promote anything. I simply attempt to educate homeowners of their rights and offer them what options may be out there for them to seek.

My focus is to save families from foreclosure.

Whatever route they take is their decision.

Secondly, short sales do nothing of the sort. That is a fallacy.

As a neighbor, what would you prefer? A short sale where the homeowner is still in possession, watering the grass, and maintaining the home or a vacant home that is now foreclosed on, a haven for thieves and criminals, is now being sold as an REO where the lender is going to slaughter your comparables in any case. Meanwhile, the home now boasts dead grass, shoddy landscaping, and a filthy pool over run with algae, and an eye sore you get to stare at everyday as you leave your home and drive down your street.

One might suggest you rethink the judgment call and thought process. Life is not a fish bowl and you are not the only one living in it.
