ShortSale Testimonial
Total Owed: $254,191
Accepted: $173,000
Time to Negotiate: 160 Days I was a little skeptical at first because the process is so confusing to me. It's hard pay money when there is so much uncertainty.
Now that this is behind me it feels amazing. I can move on with my life. It has been 2 years since I left the property.
You did a great job. If I every hear of anyone in a similar situation, I would definitely refer them to your company.
Best Regards, Erickson
