Gitta's Real Estate Team Sees Real Estate Short Sales as the Wave of the Future at Least for the Next 5 Years

Short sales while still a cumbersome process it has more benefits vs. a foreclosures. It helps the seller in terms of credit, the buyer to get a great deal, the community to maintain property values, upkeep of property and taxes and home owner association dues, the financial institution to get a higher value and far outweighs the other alternatives of a devastating foreclosure.

Orlando, FL, October 21, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Gitta’s Real Estate Team has closed about 50 short sales over the past 15 months here in the greater Orlando area and is processing about 15 more, preventing sellers from having to go through foreclosure and reducing the impact on the credit for years to come. In a short sale situation a buyer can buy a home in 2 years, whereas in a foreclosure it takes 5 to 7 years and the impact on your credit is more severe. A short sale is a process whereby a seller can sell a home which is upside down and the bank is accepting less for the home as to what the mortgage is. This way the home gets sold, it reduces the amount of foreclosures, gets normally a higher value compared to a foreclosure and also keeps the home and property maintained most of the time. The federal government is now exploring the short sale process to be streamlined and used as a preferred method over the traditional foreclosure. Gitta’s real estate team is a certified short sale specialist operating here in greater Orlando and has several short sale specialists on the team. The short sale process is very time consuming and very detailed and a professional negotiator can offer so much more in terms of getting the job done in less time and less frustration on the buyer and the seller. Gitta’s’ real estate team is serving Lake, Orange, Volusia, Seminole and Osceola County helping sellers to sell their homes without the burden of a foreclosure and the bad hits on credit and also keeping property values higher compared to the foreclosure process.

The good thing is, there is no cost to the seller and it is a managed process and it keeps the seller’s dignity during some very troubled times and also provides for some closure to the process. The team has seen many lenders not asking for an unsecured note to be signed and some show the note as paid in full, it depends on the lender and hopefully this process is getting streamlined as we are seeing an onslaught of more delinquencies due to the job market and falling real estate values.
