A REALTOR® with the SFR® certification can guide a buyer through the distressed property transaction. |
REALTORS® who have earned the SFR® certification have the necessary knowledge and tools to maneuver through short sale and foreclosure processes. With their comprehensive training, an SFR® has the ability to represent either the seller or buyer during the distressed property transaction and see it through. By understanding both sides of the distressed property transaction, an SFR® can anticipate the unique needs of clients while reducing any possible risk.
Members of the National Association of REALTORS® who have earned the Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource certification understand distressed property transactions, and everything that is included.
Working with an SFR® takes the stress out of distressed property transactions. We know that selling or buying a home in uncertain times can be scary, but we know how to make it happen. With unexpected opportunities everywhere, now is the time to sell or buy.
