Some Important Traits To Look For When Searching For A Short Sale Agent

Hello everyone this is Shawn Polston with Tucson Short Sale Negotiator, thank you for joining me today. Today I wanted to discuss what kind of questions you should ask and what you should look for in a short sale agent. I travel across the country to seminars and training sessions and have met numerous different agents with several different strategies. Often times when meeting with people in the Tucson area I end up referring them to a short sale agent in a different part of the country so I often interview short sale agents just like you the homeowner. Some of the things I always look for is a proven track record of short sale approvals and how many short sales are they currently working on. If a short sale agent isn’t working on files on a consistent basis it is very easy to lose touch with the ever changing short sale process. Currently my team is negotiating over fifty short sale files and are in the trenches day in and day out working for our clients. Also, be wary of any certifications or designations that a short sale agent adds to their title. Some of these designations only require three hour seminars or merely watching a few DVD’s and cannot match up with years of experience. If you are in the Tucson area and have short sale questions I encourage you to visit my website or contact me today. Even if you are outside of Tucson we have several credible short sale agents around the country we can refer you to for your short sale. Thank you for your time and have a wonderful day.
