Mary Jones watched each person who came to see 999 Gates Avenue, hoping they would show any sign of interest in making an offer.
But soliciting offers was only half our effort.
As Mary would learn, she would have to make her case to her mortgage lender long before an offer would go to contract.

In a move designed to protect homeowners, the New York City Department of Finance on July 13th 2010 announced a new program that will become the first line of defense in preventing Mortgage Fraud and House Theft.
The Notice of Recorded Document program was created to provide notification via mail, email or SMS text message to property owners, lien holders and/or their designees each time a property deed, deed related, mortgage or mortgage related document is filed that affects ownership in a property.

The watermark for success in real estate sales is high.
In spite of the required hours of class room instruction, qualifying exams and continuing education an individual must complete to become, and remain, a licensed real estate broker, it won’t impart the characteristics needed to be successful.
The best real estate brokers in Brooklyn, and throughout New York City, are innately aware of how their success is defined.
And what 3 character traits power the results their clients benefit from.

Mary Jones had concerns about how I would have to sell her home. If I were in her shoes in 2008 I would have been just as skeptical.
After all, who would bother going through all I explained to buy her house in a foreclosure short sale.
I remember her saying, “I see a lot of For Sale signs in Bushwick. What makes you think you’ll get someone to make an offer to buy my house that the bank will accept?”.
I looked at Mary and said, “by making sure they can make an offer the Bank can’t refuse“.
Would confidence alone be enough to get 999 Gates Avenue sold?

Your not hearing rumors. Congress is actually considering extending the Home Buyer Tax Credit.
Well, sort of. Legislation has been drafted to extend a portion of the original legislation to September 30th 2010.
