It is everywhere you look today. In every newspaper and on every television set and radio across America. If you are reading this website then the odds are you are one of an alarming number of homeowners or Real Estate Agents who have become part of it or been effected by it. You may have heard it referred to as the subprime mortgage loan crisis or the mortgage lending crisis or any one of a number of different names but they all refer to the same set of problems facing homeowners.

The implosion of the mortgage lending market along with skyrocketing adjustable rate mortgages and falling home prices across the Country have created an economic "perfect storm". Foreclosures are being filed faster than our County Courthouses can process them.

Homeowners are losing their homes. Mortgage and real estate professionals are losing their jobs. Banks are getting stuck with huge inventories of houses they can not possibly sell for what is owed on them. While our representatives in Congress work to come up with a solution to this crisis, what are we to do in the meantime? The only answer for many people facing foreclosure is a short sale.

What is a Short Sale? Very simply, a short sale is when a mortgage lender or lenders agree to accept less than the total amount of money they are owed on a piece of property in order to facilitate the sale of the property. It creates a win-win situation for both parties.

This is done when the owners of the property have fallen behind on their mortgage payments and a foreclosure on the property is imminent. A short sale allows the property to be sold and the lender to recoup some of its losses. It also allows the property owner to sell the property and avoid having a foreclosure ruin their credit and economic future for the next ten years.

Short Sales for America was founded to help give Realtors a FREE viable alternative to negotiating their own short sales. Too many negotiationg companies were taking money up front and not getting the deals closed. It was becoming hard to know who to trust and sellers and realtors were wary about using anyone at all.

This meant the real estate agents themselves had to negotiate their own short sale deals and it was time consuming and frustrating. Real estate agents want to sell houses, not negotiate payoffs, liens, judgements, HOA fees, municipal code violations and all of the other problems that are a part of almost every short sale. In stepped Short Sales For America and its revolutionary approach to helping Realtors.

As one of the first full-time short sales negotiation companies to open its doors, Short Sales For America has always been one of the leaders in the industry.

Using its connections with Bayside Title & Escrow, Inc. and its over 18 years experience in all aspects of real estate finance and loss mitigation, Short Sales for America was able to make an immediate impact on the real estate market in Florida. Soon realtors from all over the state were calling and sending in files for our expert negotiators to close. This quickly spread to the rest of the Country and now Short Sales For America agents can be found nationwide from coast to coast.

Now well into our FIFTH year, Short Sales for America is the premier short sale negotiating company in the United States. We have been so successful that title companies across the country have begun copying our approach and offering their own short sale negotiating services.

Don’t be fooled by these “beginner” negotiators. Only trust the company that started it FIRST, does it best, and has a full time staff of trained negotiatiors, not title processors pretending to be negotiators, working on your file.

Trust the company that agents for Keller Williams, ReMax, United Realty, Keyes, and Century 21 Realty all use to negotiate their short sales.
