Alexi T. Mavrellis Earns Prestigous Designation To Help Homeowners In Danger of Foreclosure

At Guardian Realty & Investment Group, LLC we deal with many homeowners who are in financial duress and many times they are facing foreclosure. With the drastic drop in property values in the Phoenix area, many times a short sale is the best solution since we can not sell the home for what the homeowners owes on that property. The short sale is usually a better alternative than foreclosure for the homeowner. Click here for more information on short sales.

As the Designated Broker for Guardian Realty & Investment Group, LLC, I am very pleased to announce that Alexi T. Mavrellis, a Realtor our brokerage, has earned the prestigous Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) designation, having completed extensive training in foreclosure avoidance and short sales. This is invaluable expertise to offer at a time when the area is ravaged by “distressed” homes in the foreclosure process.

“This CDPE designation has been invaluable as I work with sellers and lenders on complicated short sales,” says Mavrellis. “It is so rewarding to be able to help sellers save their homes from foreclosure.”

Alex Charfen, founder of the Distressed Property Institute in Boca Roton, Florida said that Realtors such as Alexi with the CDPE designation have valuable training in short sales that can offer the homeowner much better alternatives to foreclosure, which virtually destroys the credit rating. These experts may also better understand market conditions and can help sellers through the emotional experience, he said.

The Distressed Property Institute opened in January 2008 and provides training on-site and online. The CDPE designation is the premiere designation for Realtors helping homeowners in distress and handling short sales.

“Our goal is to educate as many people as possible so we can help as many homeowners as possible,” Charfen said.

For more information about the CDPE designation, you can call 1-800-482-0335.

Congratulations Alexi! We are proud to have you on the team!
