Here is a short blog of Truth.  You can hold this statement to many things all of us have attempted in our lives.  But since I am specifically addressing the issues of this housing market (Short Sales and a choice thereof), I wanted to identify what I am seeing with this in 2 main areas.

1. The homeowner trying to save their home.

2. The Realtor/Agents that need to know how to handle them.

We have all been aware of some of the programs the government has offered to help homeowners (HAMP, HAFA, DIL etc..) and how they may fare …..or not…for the homeowner.  We also know that the results of these programs have been widely criticized as being a failed attempt to work (mostly).  So here is my view of what I am seeing specifically in the two areas I mentioned.

Now there is obvious finger pointing with the lack of direction, the lack information, and how the past decisions and positions (with offering and writing these loans) have shaped the crisis we are in.  But, basically being informed about the correct steps and making a true attempt to know what those are is the area I see most lacking.  The homeowner and the agent need to understand what the options are and stick with following through with a plan.  The stuff we are seeing is not just a failed system, but the attempt of trying a system they may not have known much about.  And therefore a poor follow through and result.

Keep it short,
