subject: Short Sales Enable Agents To Realize Higher Commissions That Seemed Impossible To Sell [print this page] Real estate agents are in a period where they have to think both proactively and reactively in an ever changing real-estate market. Just as some of the novice investors, we have seen many agents pack up their bags and leave the real estate market for good.
If many of these agents and investors just thought out of the box a little, they would realize the same fortunes many are experiencing today with more properties that they can handle. How would you like to have properties handed to you? Could you use a negotiation team to have your stagnant properties submitted with Buyer's offers?
You may ask, "Why yes, I could get an abundance of leads currently but all the properties I get, the Seller owes more than the house is worth." With today's debacle of foreclosed homes, REO listings and homeowners over-leveraged, you would be 100% correct. You may not know how to negotiate on a short sale efficiently, you may not have buyers lining up in today's market waiting for you to offer them a dream house at a dream price, you may be a successful real-estate agent but just don't want to spend the time negotiating on short sales. There are services that specialize in the art of short sales and can get them accepted usually in about 60 days; thus eliminating many agent frustrations. However, once they speak to an experienced short sale house, they realize these "MONEYTREE" opportunities are a sure-fire way to both succeed and surpass their fellow agents.
Once such group is called simply The Short Sale House and has been negotiating on short sales for over four years with a team of experts trained to receive the fastest acceptances at the best prices. Currently averaging over fourteen acceptances per week. Agents must choose an industry leader in negotiating with lenders ensuring a higher success rate.
The key to negotiating on any potential short sale property/listing is to have the skill-set to substantiate the buyer's offer, validate the geographic real-estate market in relation to the property being submitted, and have a relationship with the lenders where they realize the benefits of accepting our short sale offer over going through the foreclosure process. Through a short sale service company's strong relationships with the lenders over the last four years, they should be able to receive acceptances on offers at a much faster rate than other short sale negotiation companies. Their experience and ability to receive acceptances in a timely fashion, usually in 30 days or less, will catapult agent sales above the industry leaders.
A short sale service provider should cater towards real estate agents needs and have a whole group of investors waiting to submit their offers on listings with a professional team in place to handle the short sale negotiation process. Submitting disclosure paperwork above and beyond what is required, plus having the best interests for not only the agents involved, but the sellers as well, and employs special tactics to get your properties from "cold" to "sold"!
