FROM A CLIENT TO HIS LISTING AGENT:
I wanted to tell you about my Venetian Bay short sale. It was a SUCCESS. This has been a wacky ride. L and I were in Orlando in late January when coincidentally I was served with court papers. Subsequently we listed the condo with you and to our surprise received an offer to buy very shortly thereafter.
To put it candidly, the whole process worried me to the point of UNOFFICIAL INSANITY. Having survived one previous short sale that cost me $ 25,000, I wasn’t looking forward to this one.
Than Alma and Sheryl entered the picture.
The ladies pressed me into completing form after form… and took over my case. I have absolutely no idea how they accomplished getting me off the hook SCOT FREE, but to say that I am DEEPLY GRATEFUL would be an enormous understatement. While my nerves were al little frazzled, somehow they managed to keep in the loop and calm… well sort of.
Dealing with this transaction from another country while trying to explain the differences in taxation, laws, postal codes etc., is trying at times. The ladies took great care of me. I would have liked to have been a FLY ON THE WALL when Alma Sheryl went to battle with GMAC…they must have some out swinging.
(But the) SCORE: 1-0 Short Sale Facilitators vs. GMAC. Game over.
Lon, as a long time customer (and friend) of yours you need to know that Short Sale Facilitators did an awesome job for me. Awesome.
I realize that no one is making any significant profit out of this deal but it is worth millions to me. Thank you for recommending Alma and Sheryl to me.

Alma is as dedicated, passionate and as knowledgeable about the 'backend' of real estate transaction as you will find anywhere. Give her a job to do and it will be done by about the time you finish telling her what needs to be done, almost! December 8, 2011
David (Founder and CEO at New Homes Niche ) was with another company when working with Alma at Short Sale Facilitators
“Alma leads a team of professionals that negotiate short sales on behalf of home sellers and buyers. She and her team are dedicated to getting the short sale approved and the deal closed.”

You have made this by far the BEST experience with a short sale I’ve ever had. Thank you for the updates.
--Bryce Rysewyk, Success Investment Realty
'I started out looking for someone to negotiate my short sales from California to Orlando. I found Short Sale Facilitators Inc. They know how to negotiate and save me hours of my own time. Their ratios in getting offers approved are at 100% to date for me. Communication of the negotiations is one of the most important things that I expect and I can say that all parties involved in the transaction are always satisfied.'
--Irving Gerena, Keller Williams Realty
“Our team decided 18 months ago to “Go Big” listing short sales and we owe our subsequent success to our focus on the marketing and sales, while leaving the negotiations to a third party. After working with four different negotiation companies, we can honestly say that none achieved the standards, competence and success ratio that we have enjoyed with Short Sale Facilitators. Their attention to detail and follow-up is consistently top-notch, and buyer agents with whom we co-broke love the higher commissions that are possible with Short Sale Facilitators’ compensation arrangement.
We love the way that Short Sale Communicators communicates with our owners, freeing us to list and sale. We also love Short Sale Communicators’ seamless connectivity with Greater Florida Title, reducing the time and effort we need to spend on transaction coordination. All-in-all, everyone is winning in this partnership; our owners, our buyers, our co-broker realtor partners, our buyers and us!!”

Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into getting the B____ short sale approved. It’s always a pleasure working with someone as professional and diligent as you. I’m looking forward to the many deals we’ll do together in the future!
Best Regards,
--Bill Miller, Remax Central Real Estate
My thanks to you and the team. This challenging process has been stressful, but made tolerable by your patience and guidance. Time to move forward. Still amazed by your ability to get the lenders to ‘go away’… wow.
