VHDA short sales

Are there any other Virginia SS gurus on this site? I could use some help on a VHDA SS. VHDA is a tough nut and we could use some help from someone who has more experience than we do with them. We've closed one with them, and it went beautifully, but we are finding that they don't negotiate and their SS terms on their non-insured loans are all but impossible. I am working on 2 at the moment (neither are insured loans--the one we closed was insured, so none of the following conditions…

Need feedback, help and advise.

I've listed a home (Nov. 2011)  in Scottsdale AZ, for a seller who was discharged of his Mtg Debts thru Chapter 7 BK in  2 months prior-Sept.2011.
