Expertise

I can answer most foreclosure related questions. Buying, selling, the process of foreclosure, Loss Mitigation, Short Sales, etc. Both for HUD and VA homes as well as conventional foreclosures. I work 100% in the Foreclosure arena, dividing my time equally between consumers going through foreclosure, people interested in buying foreclosures (investors and those looking for a home of their own for lesser cost), and with the lenders doing foreclosures. This unique three prong approach allows me to see all three sides of the typical foreclosure scenario. Our goal is to offer advice and create a win-win-win situation.

Experience in the area

19 years of bank owned housing experience.

Publications

Money Magazine, Real Estate Today and many newpapers, regional and national.

Education/Credentials

Foreclosure Specialist

Past/Present Clients

GMAC Mortgage, Horizon Management, and 43 other lenders involved in the foreclosure process.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

For those in the foreclosure process or about to enter it, there are often alternatives to losing the property. But time is of the essence. With each passing day, the alternatives can disappear. Act quickly to learn what choices you have.
