Fort Lauderdale, FL, September 10, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Scott D. Coloney, President of Fort Lauderdale, FL–based Foreclosure Response Team, has announced that company’s “Realtor Affiliate” Cheryl Jackson of Re/MAX 1st Realty, has closed on a Short Sale transaction for a single-family home located at 1813 Gray Street in Marquette, MI. The Foreclosure Response Team is a national Realtor network with advanced short sale technology, training and loss mitigation services.

The property sold for $145K after the price was systematically dropped from $180K over seven months. Wells Fargo is the Short Sale lender that approved the sale. The closing, which took place on July 14, 2009, was processed over a three-month time period.

“It is very significant to obtain a fair price for the home to help the homeowner avoid foreclosure. The Short Sale process is a difficult one. With the cooperation from the seller and buyer, as well as the resources and expertise of the Foreclosure Response Team, the closing on the property went smooth and swiftly. In addition, by saving the property from foreclosure, the neighborhood benefits by having a home with value on the market, rather than watching it sit abandoned,” said Jackson.

The systematic network provides affiliate brokers and real estate agents with valuable marketing and professional resources needed to increase the sellers’ success rate in the pursuit of a short sale.

Through Foreclosure Response Team’s departmentalized structure, real estate agents are relieved of the complicated tasks associated with the administration, and processing of loss mitigation when handling Short Sale transactions allowing them the opportunity to focus on the sale of the home. Affiliate agents are provided secure access the online short sale management system which efficiently provides real time updates and data flow between loss mitigation experts and Affiliate agents.
