My name is Carl SanFilippo, Realtor®, Certified Distressed Property Expert: I’m sorry to hear that your house has expired from the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) without a successful sale. I realize that can be frustrating, but please do not give up hope...

Given my background, I strongly believe that I can help you!

First, there are typically 4 main reasons why a short sale property does not sell:

1.  An inexperienced Realtor® - Short sales are a whole new ballgame and require an experienced specialist to effectively get the job done (always request proof).
2. Inexperienced attorneys – Reason #1 applies here as well. Just like doctors, you need an attorney who specializes in this unique and often challenging field (be sure to ask).
3. Rejection by the lender – This can be caused by a number of reasons including an unqualified buyer, inexperienced attorney, or an inexperienced Realtor® who lacks the necessary negotiating skills and appropriate lender and attorney contacts (use an expert who won’t drop the ball).
4. Poor marketing efforts – There’s a lot more to marketing a property these days than simply tossing it into the MLS and praying. Although many Realtors® have been known to “promise the moon”, what is required is one who will put forth the time, funding and effort to see it through (communication is key: ask for a copy of their comprehensive, step-by-step marketing plan and insist on regular progress reports).

Now that you know (and have likely experienced) what doesn’t work, are you ready to move forward with a plan (and Realtor®) that does work? I am your short sale expert and have turned all four of these “excuses” upside down!

•  I have the experience, having successfully closed numerous foreclosure properties, as well as have great relationships with specialized attorneys who know how to get the job done.
•  I have great lender contacts, know how to negotiate the best terms your behalf, and know how to precisely navigate the short sale process in order to insure that everything get done correctly, and in timely fashion.
•  I have the marketing savvy and buyer networks to expose your property in the best light to the highest number of qualified buyers and investors in today’s challenging real estate market.

Perhaps best of all, I have worked it out to where you pay nothing for all of these services: no commissions, attorney fees or closing costs! In fact, you may even qualify for up to $3,000 cash back!
