Is a Short Sale Right For You?

A short sale is a sale of real estate in which the proceeds from the sale fall short of the balance owed on a loan secured by the property sold. Due to the dramatic drop in prices in the Phoenix metro area, a short sale may be the best option for homeowners who have to sell and owe more than their home is worth. The Arizona Department of Real Estate has written a Short Sale Seller Advisory to assist homeowners in determining if a short sale is their best option. Click here to view the advisory.

Short Sale Testimonials

Todd was great! He got a tough deal closed for us with a short sale through Bank of America.  Even though the bank had denied the short sale originally, Todd kept it going and finally got it approved by getting the right people in the loop.  We appreciate Todd's hard work to be able to get our house sold before we had to consider foreclosure or other avenues. Thanks Todd!  - E. & D. Hayes

I would highly recommend Todd if you need to pursue a short sale of your home. Todd was extremely helpful, available, and knowledgeable during my experience. Todd kept me informed all along the process. He worked hard to secure a buyer and was kind and professional at every turn. You can trust Todd, he is honest and forthright. - B. Jackson
