Why Choose Us?
Short sales are complicated transactions
involving a structured multiple step process between the
lender(s), the seller, the buyer, and our team. In some short
sales, additional parties such as private mortgage insurance
companies and loan underwriters may be involved.
Because of the complexity of properly
handling a short sale transaction, you need to work with a team
that specializes in short sale transactions and will properly
handle the transaction from start to finish.
When you work with our team, we are
committed to making sure your short sale is handled with
expediency and professionalism.

with your short sale today!
