I’ve been doing short sales in Orlando since 2005 and something happened last week that has never happened to me before. I’ve been working on this Orlando shorts sale listing for the past 3 months. After negotiating with the bank we got the payoff approved at $192,000.00 and the buyers were ready to close. Each time I would get a hold of the negotiator he would say that I would have the approval letter the next day so I would then update my clients with the same update that was given to me. After hearing the same story from me day after day and week after week It got to the point where everyone thought it was all somehow my fault.
To make matters worse, the buyer got tired of waiting and walked from the deal, my client even talked about hiring another agent. The following day I received a call from the negotiator and I couldn’t believe what he told me. He actually told me that he was purposely stalling this particular file because he didn’t want it to close until the month of March. He explained to me that the bank can only handle a certain amount of loss per month and they had already hit their limit for the month of February. He then proceeded to explain to me how he was purposely stalling me by not providing me with the approval letter. When I heard this I felt like reaching through the phone and slapping him. That wasn’t possible so I did the next best thing, I gave him a piece of my mind.
All he had to do was inform me of what was going on from the start and everything would have been fine. The buyers would have had no problem at all waiting as long as they knew what was going on. After I vented my frustration with the negotiator I insisted that he personally call my client and explain the situation to him. Thank God everything is back on track and all is right with the world, we’re closing at the beginning of March.

This week our featured property is located in the beautiful neighborhood of Hunters Creek. This neighborhood was recently voted the 21st best place to live in America. The top-rated schools in addition to everything else mentioned below, Hunters Creek is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Orlando. The good news is that you can still find a great deal in Hunters Creek.
The Parks of Hunters Creek
If you have kids, you will love Hunters Creek, It’s obvious that when they made the plans for building Hunters Creek 25 years ago, they had young families in mind all the way. There are playgrounds, soccer fields, baseball fields, football fields, basketball courts, tennis courts, and racquetball courts for residents to enjoy. Hunters Creek also has youth sports programs for just about any sport you can think of for children wanting to participate. There are also gazebos and community centers that can be used for private activities.
Shopping and Restaurants
Hunters Creek is conveniently located close to several good restaurants right there in The Village. Wherever you live in Hunters Creek, you’re only a few minutes away from a healthy selection of family restaurants, pubs and there’s even a Farmers market. If it’s a mall your looking for, try going to the Loop. It’s just minutes away and it has a wide array of stores as well as a movie theater.
Shingle Creek Trail
Over the years we’ve seen enough animals in our backyard to start a zoo. We’ve seen deer, turkeys, river otters, bobcats, foxes, wild boars, bald eagles, Sandhill cranes, and owls just to name a few. With ponds everywhere, most residents are able to go fishing, kayaking, or canoeing without even having to drive. Although we’ve seen small alligators in the water, the larger ones are removed by animal control and taken to Gatorland.
Shingle Creek Trail is a beautiful conservation area that consists of hiking trails, bike paths, lakes and there’s even a trail that travels along the side of Shingle Creek where people go kayaking, canoeing, and fishing. We often go bike riding through the trails because my boys love it.
It’s a 1 story home with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and 1,878 sq ft of living space.

When the real estate market crashed, many people were left owing a lot more on their house than it was actually worth. Some also lost their jobs. It didn’t matter what income bracket they were in, the crash affected upper, middle and lower income families alike.
In other words, you’re not alone. So, there’s really no reason at all to feel embarrassed about doing a short sale. And, there is nothing dishonest about it, as some people feel; a short sale is merely a tool to help you take control of your financial situation, rather than letting your house go to foreclosure, which often has a more damaging effect on your credit rating.
How will people react if I Short Sale my house?
Friends and neighbors are no longer so quick to judge those who have “short sale” or “foreclosure” signs on their front lawns. Everyone appreciates that times are tough and we’ve all become more sympathetic to those who are struggling financially.
It’s distressing for people who have always had good financial habits to suddenly find they are unable to keep their mortgage payments up-to-date. If you find yourself in a precarious financial situation due to the housing crash, doing a short sale may be the answer. No one wants to be burdened with a huge debt that is difficult to keep up the payments on.
What will my lender do if I need a short sale?
While some lenders are approachable, allowing homeowners to re-finance or negotiate new terms that will allow them to make regular payments again, other lenders aren’t so flexible, leaving you with only three choices;
pay up on the spot,
face foreclosure or
do a short sale.
If the latter is what you’re faced with, a short sale will help you to keep your dignity while you sell your home and make a fresh start.
