Short Sale Frustrations? What's the Reason?

Are you a consumer or a real estate agent that despises Short Sales?   Why do you not like short sales?   Have you placed offers on short sales only not to acquire them?  Have you placed an offer and heard that you had a verbal approval only to not end up with the property?
Believe it or not, most Realtors that are in the industry DO NOT like short sales but don’t have a specific reason why they don’t.   Is that because they are too lazy to understand what a short sale is and how the GAME works?   Short sales are a game.   You just need to know how to play it and the pitfalls associated with this type of transaction.
For this blog, I would like you to leave a comment and let us know what you know about short sales and whether or not you like them or dislike then and the reason.   After several comments are posted I will let you in on a little secret as to why most people at the end of the day don’t end up getting their short sale offer accepted if it is indeed a very lucrative offer that was “verbally” accepted.    Post away!!
