I just read an article (yes another one!) to support predictable real estate and the PRIME OPPORTUNITY in short sales.  There is and will be a growing issue with Commercial Real Estate and defaults.  It is predicted and it is expected.  The cycle of real estate is reliable. Each sector follows each other.  We have seen (and continue to see) the correction with the residential market and as it turns toward recovery (projected 0ut another 3 years) so does the turn for the Commercial Real Estate.  What does that mean to you and I?  Well it depends.  If you prepare and plan for it, it could mean MAJOR OPPORTUNITY for short sales, and the ability to use this previous market (the one we are in now) to support our level of experience in dealing with a market such as this.  Winning over CASH SUPPORTERS to invest with (a.k.a. investor partners) will be a key component to the game.  Build it and they will come.
