Short Sale Realtors: Bloomfield / Birmingham / Novi / Troy / Rochester / Beverly Hills / West Bloomfield / Franklin / Royal Oak / Huntington Woods / Oakland County / Detroit Metro Area The Mike Realtor Team! : November 2009

The Mike Realtor Team is proud to announce that we have launched a new Short Sale Website!!!

New Short Sale Website for Oakland County Home Owners http://www.ShortSaleOaklandCounty.com/, Oakland County, MI

This website was made for consumers to learn about Loan Modifications, Short Sale and Foreclosures.  It has many reports that are easy to read and understand. As a real estate agent, what I often see in troubled homeowners is a belief that they are alone with their challenges. Regrettably, over 70% of homeowners in foreclosure proceed without ANY visible assistance. This is not acceptable for the communities I serve.

 Please check out http://www.ShortSaleOaklandCounty.com/ and call me if you want to learn more.

This is a competitive real estate market.  If you have to sell and can not, perhaps it is time to look at a Short Sale.  The Mike Realtor Team has performed dozens of Short Sales for professionals who have lost their job, income has declined, medical problems, relocation, retirement, divorce, loss of spouse, unable to make ends meet, or other reasons not listed.

One of the most important things about being a short sale Realtor having quality content about short sales that sellers can read on-line.  Often, Short Sale Sellers, do not want to call a Realtor first.  They want to learn as much as they can before deciding which agent to work with.  Make sure you have good on-line content and you clients will be happy to work with you.

Content like:

• Short sale website, (mine is http://www.shortsaleoaklandcounty.com/)
• Write a blog about short sales, like Active Rain.
• Put information on your linked-in page.
• Your Face Book is a great place to link articles about short sales
• You regular Real Estate Website.  (www.mikerealtor.com)
  • I put links to from my short sale blog or other short sale related content.
• Twiiter is another good place to let people know about your short sale skills

 Below is a link to my Short Sale website and a copy of the home page below that.

As buyer's agent we need to know the answers to the Home buyer tax credit Frequently Asked Questions.  It is very embarrassing if your buyer knows more about the changes in your profession then you do.  Please see the below NAR FAQ Sheet for the Home buyer Tax Credit Changes. 

READ it NOW!!!  I assure you in today's instant messaging world, your buyer knows about these changes 10 seconds after they happen.

Happy house hunting.
