Experience, Professionalism, Personalized Service
I’m here to help you through the entire process when you need to sell or want to buy real estate in the Phoenix Arizona metro area. That includes Luxury Homes, View Lots, and Investment Property. Two of my specialities are Short Sales and Divorce Real Estate Sales. I will help you complete a Short Sales if that is the best alternative for you. As a CDPE (Certified Distressed Property Expert) who has successfully closed short sales in all price ranges, I can assist you if you need to sell your home, even when you owe more than the home is currently worth. Education and experience in short sales is essential to sell residential property in today’s distressed market. If you are experiencing a hardship that is making it difficult to pay your mortgage, or if you are already behind on your loan payments, please call me. You can still sell your home, even if you have no equity, or negative equity, which is very common today. If your situation qualifies for a short sale, your mortgage company may agree to accept less than you owe. When a lender approves a short sale, sales commissions and typical closing expenses are in effect paid by the lender. And a short sale is usually way better than going through a foreclosure for a lot of reasons. For free information on short sales and other alternatives to foreclosure, visit my cdpe website: http://hosted.CDPE.com/PhoenixShortSales.
As a Real Estate Collaborative Specialist in Divorce (“RCS-D REALTOR”) I help divorcing homeowners secure the critical information needed, hopefully long BEFORE signing a Property Settlement Agreement. People need to understand what they own, what they owe, and what their property distribution options are, before going forward with a property distribution. Too often, people learn after their divorce decree is final what risks they are now facing because they made their property distribution decisions with too little facts. You need at least the level of information that a regular buyer wants before agreeing to buy your spouse out of the house!
I also represents traditional buyers and sellers on residential, investment, and land properties in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Laveen, and Tempe Arizona. As an experienced, professional, full-time Realtor, I care about my clients and will provide you with the level of personalized service that you want and deserve.As your Realtor, I represent your interests.
My background includes a degree in architecture from the University of Cincinnati, 25 years in underwriting and management positions in commercial real estate finance, 10 years as a Realtor, and 7 years as a Broker. I managed a half-billion dollar RTC distressed asset portfolio, negotiated settlements and liquidated major non-performing commercial loans for a private asset management firm. And I have underwritten commercial debt and equity transactions on all types of property. I am also on the Maricopa County Superior Court roster as a Special Real Estate Commissioner.
Call me today and put my experience to work for you.
