In the current down market we have enjoyed assisting distressed home owners in need of the true financial relief which can be offered by a short sale. The federal government and lenders have been making a big push towards loan modifications and short sales over foreclosure. If you are a distressed home owner and qualify for the HAFA program, you can even get paid $3000 at closing to do a short sale rather than foreclosure.
