A note about Short Sales:

For buyers, short sales are a way to get a bargain. For upside-down homeowners, they are

a way to avoid foreclosure. But for pretty much everyone involved, short sales are not a way

to buy a house quickly. Short sales can be anything but short. Unless you work with

highly skilled agents.

We just completed one short sale where the bank simply refused to collaborate and we

had to employ an array of tactics to get the main person in charge and we closed 4 days later

The best thing is that my client knows that she sold her home and no foreclosure on her record.

in two years, she'll be buying again

The Road to a Short Sale:

Short sales are also an option for investors, why let those investments drained you
until you have nothing left. . a short sale can be a tool to put you in a better
position a couple years from now.

GAITHERSBURG MD TRUSTEE SALES - HARVEY WEST AUCTIONEERS

Harvey West Auctioneers has scheduled Maryland trustee sales.

Trustee sales auctions are open to the public and all qualified bidders. These sales are foreclosures by the secured mortgage lenders. Buyers should carefully read the newspaper advertisements that appear for three weeks before the sale date. The required deposits must be in the form of cash or certified funds. Most of the bidders use cashier's checks that are payable to themselves and endorse the checks when they are successful. Always check for cancellations before attending trustee sales. Seek professional advice if you do not have full knowledge of the risks. Since these transactions are not conditioned on the availability of mortgage financing, buyers should always have written pre-approval for financing with disclosure to the lender that the property is being purchased in 'as-is" condition. Normally, the properties are not offered for inspection.

The secured mortgage lenders are buying in most of the properties that are sold at the court house auctions. The lenders then offer the homes for sale to the public when they become part of the REO inventory. Contact us for client reports on lender owned homes that are available for purchase. We represent home buyers as their exclusive agents in the Maryland suburbs of Washington DC and nearby counties. roykelley@mris.com

Help Families in Need through City of Gaithersburg Holiday Giving Program

With the goal of making the Thanksgiving and December holidays more festive for 500 families in need, the City of Gaithersburg is once again coordinating a Holiday Giving Program in conjunction with representatives from Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, Derwood Bible Church, Grace United Methodist Church and St. Francis of Assisi Parish.

Individuals, businesses, congregations, and other groups are invited to help by providing monetary contributions, grocery store gift cards and Target gift cards in denominations of $10 and $20. Donations can be made by credit card this year. Opportunities to sponsor City families for Thanksgiving and/or in December are also available and most welcomed.

Referrals for this program come to the City's Community Services office from area schools and nonprofit counselors and the program operates in conjunction with the countywide Holiday Giving Program to ensure non-duplication of services. This countywide effort is coordinated by Interfaith Works in conjunction with the Montgomery County Volunteer Center.

For more information please contact Maureen Herndon at 301-258-6395 x2 or visit the Community Services web page: www.gaithersburgmd.gov/communityservices.
