These can be the best short sale properties in Laguna Niguel to make a purchase offer on.

- How To Maximize Your Profits With Short Sales
By: Jason Loucks | - Short sales are often given a bad reputation in the world of real estate. The reason for this is because about 90% of the investors out there only perform the one type of short sale, the most obvious one. They invest in houses that have a lot of debt on them and are often over-financed to the point where the seller owes 10% to 50% more than the home is actually worth.

By: Jason Loucks | - That's why many short sale investors fail. They don't know what they're doing, or they give the bank the impression that they don't, and they'll fill out the paperwork with no response.
Banks don't have time to teach people how to do things. Banks aren't going to respond to people that request short sale paperwork if they don't know what they're doing, and they definitely aren't going to help people along the way. Banks that used to have 30 or 40 foreclosures on their plate now h ...

- 7 Biggest Mistakes Realtors Make While Doing Short Sales - Mistake #7
By: Chris Badger | - One of the top mistakes realtors make while doing short sales is failing to know and really understanding the short sale process.
This is possibly the biggest mistake of all, and a very frequent one.

- 7 Biggest Mistakes Realtors Make While Doing Short Sales - Mistake #6
By: Chris Badger | - One of the top mistakes Realtors make when handling a short sale is just letting the appraisal or BPO happen.
The lender will have an appraisal or BPO done to help them determine the value of the property when they are considering a short sale. In some cases the lender may have two BPO's done. The lender then uses these values to determine whether they will accept the short sale offer. So we can see that the value written by the appraiser or BPO agent is extremely important to ...

By: Chris Badger | - One of the top mistakes realtors make while handling short sales is getting mad or upset at the lender or the loss mitigator when things don't go the way the agent would like them to.
Picture this - a football player takes the ball and runs the wrong way to the opponent's goal line. When he crosses the wrong goal the referee of course signals a safety, not a touchdown. So the player has scored 2 points for the other team, not 6 points for his team.

By: Chris Badger | - One of the top mistakes that realtors make while handling short sales is sending the lender an incomplete short sale package.
If we don't send the lender a complete short sale package, the way they want the package to be, we are just wasting our time. Actually we are wasting everyone's time - the buyer, the seller, the buyer's agent, and even the lender involved.
Often the lender won't even do anything with a package that is incomplete. And worse yet, they proba ...

By: Chris Badger | - Mistake #3 - Taking multiple offers and forwarding them on to the lender, and not signing a contract.
This mistake is a big one! This is where Realtors are not only making their life more complicated, but they are also being much less effective with Short Sales, and making it much less likely that the sale will ever close.

Most of the time, we find realtors are listing short sale properties either too high, or too low. They somehow think that there is some mystery to choosing a listing price when a short sale is needed.
We often see agents who are unfamiliar with short sales list a property to cover the debt and sales expenses, and that price is higher t ...
