Couldn't believe this until it actually happened to me.  Bought investment property at $230,000,now worth $95,000.  Why are sellers not only being turned down by banks re modifications, but also by realtors?

Virginia. I'm in central Florida and closed on a short sale last week for $21,000. Closed on one yesterday at $62,000. Values are down so far in my market that it is quite common to have short sales in the 50s and 60s. I work them because these folks need help too. BUT....agents are business people. They have to decide what works for them. Nothing wrong with an agent choosing not to work lower priced properties. You just have to keep looking. I'm sure there are agents in your area that WILL help.

You're absolutely right. I didn't look at it from that standpoint. Thanks for the response.
