Further Evidence of the Short Sale Debacle

I had this conversation on Twitter today and had to share it as further evidence of the common problems we see in the marketplace when it comes to the handling of Short Sales. In case you are not familiar with Twitter, it’s a social media and micro-blogging platform.

The banks aren’t improving things for the local housing market, their other local assets, or the housing recovery itself with this methodology. But, this conversation serves to continue to illustrate my point about the short sale crisis and its impact on the overall health and stability of our marketplace. Love to hear your thoughts.

What is Twitter? Still Trying To Figure it Out?

Okay, you are not alone. I’ve tried to tune in, I’ve even tweeted, I just have struggled with why. Then I read a great article posted on The Real Estate Tomato Blog that helped. Slowly but surely, it’s starting to make sense.

I’ve also made a big discovery that I think will make it much more meaningful. Do you want to Tweet a new blog post but the long URL makes it impossible to effectively Tweet? Go to www.tinyurl.com for the solution. Very easy and I’m suddenly seeing the possibilities!

So if you haven’t tried it, check out twitter. Follow me – and I’ll follow you!
