Question: What can cause the lender to foreclose and then
actually GIVE the property back to the borrower?

Answer: Today's market conditions.


True Story: Recently a lender actually went through the whole foreclosure on a particular property
and then did the unthinkable...

They actually gave the property back to the borrower…WITHOUT ANY MORTGAGE ON IT.
I know this sounds too crazy to be true, but it actually happened.
Just as they had the chance to put the property back on the market and at least try to recoup some of the losses,
it actually made more sense for them just too just give the property away.

The reality with all the foreclosures that are taking place today, many banks cannot show the entire
non performing inventory on their books.

BOTTOM LINE, banks don't want to own real estate…they want to lend on real estate.

And if their books get too out of whack…well let's just say there could be some problems for the bank.
This has led to a tremendous increase in short sales - a process whereby it is possible to purchase a property
that is in foreclosure for LESS than is owed on that property. Sometimes tens of thousands of dollars less.
It's not so much that the banks want to accept less. The current foreclosure rate is forcing many banks to take drastic action.

Today buyers using short sales to get properties for as little as 30 cents on the dollar!
Even high priced properties in nice areas can be bought at substantial discounts in many cases.
If you are searching for your dream home, short sales strategy could help you save big bucks on your next purchase.
If you are a buyers agent, you could use short sales strategy to help your buyers get more house for less money.
It sounds impossible, but it really is true, and these deals really are out there.
IF you know how to negotiate them correctly.

So follow the logic, if banks don't want all of this foreclosed real estate on their books, then it's safe to say
they may actually accept LESS than they are owed for a particular property, rather than risk the possibility
of taking the property back and getting stuck with it and maybe NOT making anywhere close to what they loaned on it.

I hope by now you see the possibilities. If not, keep reading and you'll find out why so many individuals around the country
are capitalizing on the Short Sale Phenomenon.
I know, short sales have been around for some time now, so why is NOW such a unique time to utilize this technique?
Because just having the correct circumstances and knowledge is not always enough.

Many extremely wealthy people did not achieve success until the timing was right.
And the timing for Short Sales has NEVER been better.


Let me just point out some very obvious factors to drive this point home.

1. You probably know that foreclosures across the US are skyrocketing.
2. Every foreclosure adds to the inventory of non-performing assets.
3. Banking regulations are forcing banks to do things today that were
    virtually unthinkable just 3 years ago. Everyone knows the time for short sales
    is right.


OK, now that we understand these facts, how do you capitalize on this trend?
It's simple, learn the Short Sale Process and simply implement it anywhere in the United States.
The good news is that it works basically the same way wherever you happen to be.

But who do you learn it from? We know there are literally hundreds of courses floating around about this strategy.
Some are written by very famous seminar "gurus" and cost thousands of dollars.
Some are written by not-so-famous people and are not so expensive.

You guessed it, we have a recommendation. We wanted to do something unique.
One, we didn't want a seminar guru, but someone in the real estate business with bonafide real estate credentials.
You know, someone in the trenches - someone who REALLY has done short sales and does them regularly.
Second, we did not want it to cost a small fortune, but we wanted something that gives HUGE value.

So The Real Estate Arena got our good friend, Georgia Real Estate Broker, Marie Whitton to write this manual.
Remember, not a guru, but someone in the trenches. Someone who actually makes her living using Short Sales
as a business and investing strategy.

We'll let her credentials speak for themselves:

* Broker/Owner of Premier Properties of NW Georgia, LLC
* Certified Residential Specialist (CRS)
* Accredited Seller Representative (ASR)
* Graduate of Realtor Institute (GRI).
* Active Investor In Real Estate since 1998
* Successfully Completed numerous Short Sales
* Provides Broker Price Opinions for various lenders and Asset Mgt Companies.
* Lists and sells foreclosure and REO properties for various lenders.
* Negotiates Short Sales on behalf of investor buyers.
* Specialties in the sale and transfer of real property by coordinating activities of all parties and negotiated acquisitions and
   disposition of such properties in the Residential, Commercial, Land, Investing and Bank Foreclosures.
* Loss Mitigation Consultant for a Company that works with the largest Mortgage Servicers in America.

Bottom line is this, she knows her stuff. And she did exactly what we asked. She didn't write a 300 page manual with tons of fluff and fillers -- so thick you'll never get finished with it and thus never use it. And two---she didn't spend half that space talking about a more expensive product that you'll need in order be successful with short sales.

So how do we make this product inexpensive to purchase when it could actually show you how to put tens of thousands of extra dollars in your pocket?
Well, we got Marie to agree to do a "Mastermind" teleconference for everyone who is using her short sales program. So check this out - Not only do you get the step by step process and insider information for getting the banks to reduce their pay-offs by literally thousands of dollars, but you'll also get Marie herself to answer your questions.

We can tell you from personal experience, the ability to network with like minded people is priceless. You are probably already aware that "mastermind" groups can cost thousands of dollars in order to talk to real experts. This is a rare opportunity, and it is your FREE bonus as a registered owner of this program.
