Why this team
Experience is the whole point.
Short sales are won in the details, which document goes in first, how the hardship letter reads, how the comps frame the property, and how the servicer gets answered when it stalls. This team has run those details on REOs, BPOs, and lender-facing files for years, and brings that discipline to the files it supports.
