Hey, Dan Rochon at keller Williams Realty, greetingsvirginia.com, helping to help homeowners  to avoid foreclosures in Leesburg, VA, been successful in short sales in Virginia, Maryland and Washington D.C. One of the questions that so surprises me that I sometimes get about the short sale process is, “Should I just give my keys back?” This maybe the shortest video ever if I just don’t even explain it. “No.” That is actually probably the worst thing that you could posibly do, it’s  just go ahead and pretend that there’s nothing going on if you are behind on your mortgage, upside-down on your mortgage and facing foreclosure, just putting your head in the sand and ignoring that there’s an issue going, a financial distress will not help you. I’m sorry to say that it is probably not a good idea to just go ahead and go through a foreclosure and just ignore that there is a financial problem. You probably do have options but the only way for you to see if a short sale is the right option for you is to go ahead and talk to our specialists right now. So go ahead and fill out the form or give me a phone call on the phone number on this web page and I’m sure that you will agree that this is the best thing that you need to do for yourself right now and go ahead and get the process started and let’s get your questions answered.

Many of these Fairfax county homeowners could of avoided foreclosure by doing a short sale instead. In almost every case of foreclosure, the homeowner has a chance at being successful at a short sale.

The current average sales price is $498,526 which is less than 1% lower than the average sales price of year.

Properties stay on the market for an average of 60 days. There are 3,515 Active listings on the market which is down from 1 year ago when there were 3,826 Active listings.

The victims were asked to refinance their properties and then give 10 to 15% of the proceeds plus 12 to 18 months of mortgage payments to the perpetrator.  In return, it was promised that their loans would be eliminated.  Out of 150 victims, 0 were successful and 0 were given any money back.  In all, about $10 Million dollars were stolen from victims.

In addition to incorrectly promising to victims that they would have their loans forgiven, the homeowners were offered an opportunity to invest additional proceeds of their refinance to an “investment” with a guaranteed rate of return of 12 to 18%.  None of this money was returned. 

The person that committed this crime plead guilty to several counts of wire fraud, mail fraud, and money laundering and faces up to 20 years in prison and will be sentenced on May 6, 2011.

Moral of the story:

• If someone promises you something that seems to good to be true, be cautious.
• If you are a real estate professional that thinks being unethical and if you are interested in taking advantage of vulnerable people, how does a 20 year vacation from the profession sound??

GreetingsVirginia offers a SuperIDX Power Search which allows our users to search for homes for sale in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC.  IDX stands for “Internet Data Exchange” and allows for us to allow users to view homes available listed by other brokers.  We do so with a RETS data agreement that we have with MRIS MLS and the agents that use MRIS have an agreement with them that allows for them to give us this permission.

While we are aggressive in our approach to marketing and selling properties, I can assure you that Dan and Traci & Consultants with Keller Williams Realty does not indeed list 74,186 properties for sale (our broker might be a bit busy reviewing that paperwork – perhaps I should buy him an extra nice gift for Christmas for his efforts)

Sometimes we even get people upset with us about their property incorrectly listed.

“All homes published and offered for sale on this website is offered “as is,” and without warranty of any kind. Every effort is done to obtain the information regarding these listings from sources that are deemed reliable. However, we cannot warrant the complete accuracy of the information on any home. Buyer shall assume all responsibility and is encouraged to obtain an independent assessment and valuation of any property before entering into a real estate transaction. All homes published for sale on this website are subject to errors, omissions, change of price, rental or other conditions, prior sale, lease or financing, or withdrawal without notice to you”

Of course we sent an email to the listing agent of the property that we were contacted about (funny thing… he never responded or acknowledge my email).

While we would love to display every single property correctly on our website, this boils down to a basic premise:  Garbage in…  Garbage out. We will continue to hold the highest of standards for our website, and if someone contacts us about an error, we will pass that inquiry along to the party that can make the updates.
