The terms that govern this site.

Educational website only

ShortSaleDealMaker.com is an educational and informational website about short sales, distressed property, and related real estate topics. It is not a brokerage, and nothing on it is an offer to perform real estate services in any particular state. Content on this site is for general orientation and education.

No advice and no guarantees

Nothing on this website is legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice, and no content is a promise or guarantee of a particular outcome. Short sales are approved or declined at the discretion of lenders, servicers, and investors, and outcomes depend on facts we cannot control. Do not rely on anything on this site as a substitute for the advice of a qualified professional who knows your file and your state's law.

Licensing and nationwide service

Short Sale Deal Maker is a brand operated by members of The Gary Lee Team. It is not itself a separately licensed real estate brokerage. See the disclosures for the licensing picture. Where licensed California real estate services are provided, they are performed through eXp Realty of Northern California, Inc. This site describes a national brand and nationwide strategy, education, and transaction support. It does not claim that those licensed professionals personally perform licensed real estate negotiation in every state. For properties outside California, services are structured through compliant licensing, referral, and coordination arrangements with local professionals.
