Kim Williams of EXIT Results Realty Earns NAR Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource® Certification
Buyers and Sellers Benefit from REALTOR® Expertise in Distressed Sales


Columbia, Maryland (Grassroots Newswire) June 6, 2016
 -- EXIT Results Realty is pleased to announce that Kim Williams has earned the nationally recognized Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource certification. The National Association of REALTORS® offers the SFR® certification to REALTORS® who want to help both buyers and sellers navigate these complicated transactions, as demand for professional expertise with distressed sales grows.

According to a recent NAR survey, nearly one-third of all existing homes sold recently were either short sales or foreclosures.  For many real estate professionals, short sales and foreclosures are the new “traditional” transaction.  REALTORS® who have earned the SFR® certification know how to help sellers maneuver the complexities of short sales as well as help buyers pursue short sale and foreclosure opportunities.

 “As leading advocates for homeownership, REALTORS® believe that any family that loses its home to foreclosure is one family too many, but unfortunately, there are situations in which people just cannot afford to keep their homes, and a foreclosure or a short sale results,” said 2013 NAR President Gary Thomas, Broker/Owner of Evergreen Realty in Orange County, California. “Foreclosures and short sales can offer opportunities for home buyers and benefit the larger community, as well, but it’s extremely important to have the help of a real estate professional like a REALTOR® who has earned the SFR® certification for these kinds of purchases.”

The certification program includes training on how to qualify sellers for short sales, negotiate with lenders, protect buyers, and limit risk, and provides resources to help REALTORS® stay current on national and state-specific information as the market for these distressed properties evolves.

"This achievement demonstrates Kim's willingness to be actively involved in the community and help others," said Tina Hyatt, Associate Broker & Owner of EXIT Results Realty.

Owners of a Short Sale Processing company comes from behind the curtain to own a real estate company in Las Vegas

Doug Yates and Mark Cunningham have overseen over 2000 short sales.

Las Vegas, NV (Grassroots Newswire) December 05, 2012 -- Doug Yates & Mark Cunningham, owners of Complete Short Sale Processors, have been processing short sales since 2008 and have decided to come from behind the curtain to run a real estate brokerage, EXIT Las Vegas Realty Center.

"Mark Cunningham, while we still process short sales for all other real estate brokerage brands, we decided since there is a limited shelf life for this newly created industry (short sales) we better plan for the future.  EXIT Realty was the one company that fit all the needs we felt the market today warrants.  Once we saw what they had to offer it was a no brainer."

Doug and Mark hired Mark Carmen, corporate broker to manage the real estate deals while they work on the growth of the brokerage.

"Todays homeowner needs competent agents who have a competent team behind them. Our processing company allows them to have a team without any additional overhead. Not to mention we have an attorney who will represent the homeowners without any out-of-pocket expense to them.  We are using our expertise to train our agents to become the best agents in the field of short sales," said Doug Yates.
Doug Yates and Mark Cunningham have plans to make EXIT Las Vegas Realty Center the priemier brokerage for short sale clients.

Short sale is always a better option than foreclosure for homeowners in distress

Dont't Walk Away From Your Mortgage

Hinesville, Georgia (Grassroots Newswire) August 3, 2012 – When homeowners find themselves facing foreclosure, it can sometimes be difficult to get out from under the weight of the pressure and stress. Homeowners who find themselves in this circumstance are often blind to the options that are available to them.

“Many experts have popped up on the news saying some untrue things about foreclosures and short sales. In reality, a short sale is always the better option for numerous reasons,” says Angela Powell Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) EXIT Team Realty.

“Most people know that a foreclosure is bad for your credit,” said Powell “but not many people realize that it can affect things like current and future employment as well.”

As a Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE), Angela Powell has intimate knowledge about the benefits of a short sale over foreclosure. “These benefits are nothing new,” Angela Powell said, “but there is so much misinformation out there that it is easy to be misled.”

A Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) is knowledgeable of the entire landscape of foreclosure avoidance options and is distinctly qualified to negotiate with banks and help struggling homeowners regain peace of mind and a sense of stability for the future.

Angela Powell has developed a free report entitled, “The Foreclosure Fairytale,” which is accessible from her website, www.angelahelps.com

The report provides a thorough rundown of all of the ways that a short sale is more beneficial to homeowners than foreclosure.

Helping Homeowners

EXIT REALTY GRANADA

GRANADA HILLS , CA (Grassroots Newswire) 07/30/12 -- Eleanor Dullas of EXIT Realty Granada  in Granada Hills Ca, has earned the prestigious Certified Distressed Property Expert® (CDPE) designation, having completed extensive training in foreclosure avoidance, with a particular emphasis on short sales. At a time when millions of homeowners are struggling with the possibility of foreclosure, the skills and education amassed by Eleanor will help benefit Granada Hills CA-area residents and communities.

Short sales allow the distressed homeowner to repay the mortgage at the price that the home sells for, even if it is lower than what is owed on the property. With plummeting property values, this can save many people from foreclosure and even bankruptcy. More and more lenders are willing to consider short sales because they are much less costly than foreclosures.

Today, more than 13 percent of homeowners are delinquent on their mortgage or in the foreclosure process. This is occurring across all price ranges, and the fastest-growing category of homes in foreclosure is the luxury home market.

“The CDPE designation has been invaluable as I work with homeowners and lenders on complicated short sales,” said Eleanor. “It is so rewarding to be able to help families save their homes from foreclosure.”

Alex Charfen, co-founder and CEO of the Distressed Property Institute in Austin, Texas, said that agents such as Eleanor with the CDPE Designation have valuable perspective on the market, and training in short sales that can offer homeowners real alternatives to foreclosure, which can be devastating to credit ratings.

“These experts better understand market conditions than the average agent, and can help sellers through the complications of foreclosure avoidance,” he said.

The Distressed Property Institute provides live and online courses to train real estate professionals how to help homeowners in distress, with a strong focus on handling short sales.

“Our goal is to help as many homeowners as possible, by educating as many real estate professionals as possible,” Charfen said. “Eleanor has demonstrated a commitment to struggling homeowners, a commitment that can provide much-needed stabilization to the community.”

Central Arkansas Realtor Receives Certification

Blake Roussel Is Short Sale/Foreclosure Certified

Conway, Arkansas (Grassroots Newswire) 04/19/2012 -- BLAKE ROUSSEL, an agent with EXIT Natural State Realty, has earned the nationally recognized Short Sales and Foreclosures Resource Certification.  The National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) offers the SFR certification to REALTORS® interested in helping both buyers and sellers to navigate these complicated transactions, as the demand for professional expertise with distressed sales grows.

REALTORS® who have earned the SFR certification are well-equipped with the knowledge to help sellers maneuver the complexities of short sales, as well as help buyers pursue short sale and foreclosure opportunities.

The certification program includes training on how to qualify sellers for short sales, negotiate with lenders, protect buyers and limit risk.  It also provides resources to help REALTORS® stay current on national and state-specific information as the market for these distressed properties evolves.

What is a short sale?  A short sale is a transaction in which the lender agrees to accept less than the mortgage amount owed by the current homeowner. In some cases, the difference is forgiven by the lender, and in others the homeowner must make arrangements with the lender to settle the remainder of the debt.  According to NAR, “Since a short sale generally costs the lender less than a foreclosure, it can be a viable way for a lender to minimize its losses.  A short sale can also be the best option for homeowners who are ‘upside down’ on mortgages because a short sale may not hurt their credit history as much as a foreclosure.  As a result, homeowners may qualify for another mortgage sooner, once they get back on their feet financially.”

Foreclosures and short sales can offer opportunities for both home buyers and sellers; however it is extremely important in both circumstances to have the help of a real estate professional who has earned the SFR certification, giving him the tools and knowledge needed to maneuver the complexities of these types of sales.

Blake Roussel, a native of Searcy, has been selling real estate in the Central Arkansas area since 2004.  He and his wife, Amanda, have two daughters and reside in Conway. Blake can be contacted directly at 501-230-6082 or email
