Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource Certified (SFR)
Stephanie Frymyer and Shirley Williams
Your Short Sale and Foreclosure Specialists
Are you having problems making your monthly mortgage payments? You are not alone - many Americans are facing the same problem and are faced with one or more of these difficulties:
- Jobloss, business failure or decrease in income
- Personal problems, such as death of a spouse or divorce, forcing you to sell your home, but there is not enough equity
- Health problems that resulted in major debt
- Relocation, forcing you to sell your home, but there is not enough equity
- Increase in mortgage payments
- You are already in default and are facing foreclosure
- You are experiencing another form of hardship.
If this sounds like what you are going through, don't try to hide from the problem, it won't go away, and there is help out there for you.
We are Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource Certified (SFR, the only Certification acknowledged by the National Association of Realtors). Our main goal is to help you stay in your home! We offer FREE consultations and have compiled a list of government programs (like HAFA and HAMP) and non-profit services that are at your disposal free of charge.
In the sad event that you do not qualify for any of the government programs or your bank does not approve a loan modification, again, foreclosure is not your only option! Your other option is a Short Sale which we can help you with. What is the difference for you? A foreclosure can lower your credit score by 200 points and more! AND a foreclosure remains a public record and on your credit history for 7 years.
Short Sales are different. There are different ways of reporting a short sale and how it will affect your credit score. The lender can report the short sale as:
1. Paid in full - which would be "paid as agreed", however, this is very rare
2. Paid - settled
3. Paid - unrated
In addition, if the owner of a Short Sale property is current with their payments, a Short Sale may only lower the score by 50 points.
We understand what you are going through, being faced with personal and financial problems is a big burden, but ignoring the problem will not make it go away. We are licensed Realtors and will do anything in our power to help you. If a Short Sale is a feasible solution to your problem, we can help you sell your home in a timely manner. As with our regular sellers, we offer FREE STAGING with our listing of an occupied home, we will take professional quality photos and market your home to the same standard as a regular sale. You might think "Why would I care, I'm selling it!" and the answer is this: you should care how your home is marketed because if it is marketed in the right way with a fair price, it will attract potential buyers fast, and the faster you will sell your home, the sooner you will see an end to your problem.
Whatever your situation is, we are here to help you, so call us today so we can solve your problem together, you are not alone.
For questions or to schedule a free and non-binding consultation, please feel free to call us 310-308-6107 or 562-355-8120, or email us with any questions you might have.
Warm regards,

Whittier Real Estate Market Snapshot, April 19, 2010
If you are a Whittier Resident, interested in Whittier Real Estate or are thinking about relocating to the City of Whittier, this is the perfect blog for you. In order to make wise decisions, you have to know what is going on in the market and we will be giving you the latest news regarding Whittier Real Estate (other city updates also available upon request) on an ongoing basis.
Whittier is a wonderful city with a long history (please go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whittier,_California#History or visit http://www.whittiermuseum.org/ for even more details), named after famed Quaker poet John Greenleaf Whittier. Whittier is located approximately 12 miles southeast of Los Angeles, and has a population of approximately 84,000 (based on the census of 2000, let’s see what the new census says, I’m sure we have grown considerably since then).
The Median Home Price for Whittier is currently at $315,000, based on figures from February of 2010 (Source: California Association of Realtors). The Median Home Price does is not an indicator of what Whittier Homes are worth in general, it merely shows that 50% of homes were sold for more than $315,000 and 50% at prices below $315,000 (the Median Home Price does not give you the average sales price).
As it is very hard to make a decision just based on the Median Home Price, we will be giving you the WHOLE PICTURE about Whittier Real Estate – how many properties are currently listed and in what price range, how many are in Escrow, how many homes were sold in Whittier last week, etc.
