Who Are YOU
In The Short Sale?
Many guru's and so called experts advise you to be a friend or somebody that is helping the owner with the short sale. This is the worst advice they could possibly give you! First, it's lying. Second, there will come a time after the short sale has been accepted where it is revealed that you are the buyer or being compensated.
The question is how do you go from helping the owner with the short sale to being the investor buying the property or flipping it to somebody else. At this point you have lost all credibility with the lender not to mention your own personal integrity.
From the beginning you should always be the investor. Not only is this the right thing to do, it also gives you more options throughout the negotiations.
