What’s happening in My Neighborhood?

Filed under: real estate — dalewarfel2008 @ 1:14 pm

On several occasions, I have been asked by distressed homeowners about the choice between short sales, loan modification, bankruptcy and which option would be best for them. In cases such as this and providing the highest level of service to my clients, I defer to other professionals when it comes to making recommendations to my clients in these matters. Each of these options may have legal, tax, credit, financial and other consequences that are well beyond my scope and area of expertise. I do, however, know professionals who can counsel clients in these areas. If you know of a homeowner facing such a difficult decision, please give me a call with their contact information. I’ll follow up with them and help them connect to professionals that specialize in these areas.

 

If you are in need of a referral, like a qualified service provider, chances are that I have someone in my database that can help. From a massage therapist to a CPA, from an insurance agent to a mortgage broker, I have an excellent list of resources. E-mail me at Dale@DaleWarfel.com and let me know how I can assist you.

 

Are you looking for a private, secure place to search for real estate? Would you like to know what’s happening in your neighborhood? My MLS Advisor Service provides up to date information on listing activity in your area or in any Bay Area region you choose. Search for active listings, properties in escrow, price reductions and much more. Take a test drive!
