Who is afraid of short sales? Not me.

I have closed several short sales as a buyers agent and I keep hearing one buyer after another telling me that their former agents told them under no uncertain terms to ever look at short sales. I know short sales are difficult but if they have been negotiated already, they are often amazing deals for a buyer who has the patience to endure them. I was able to get the last 2 I closed done in about 6 weeks and the buyers got amazing deals

I definitely show and sell shortsales and I just think its ridiculous that agents who have never done them or tried them bash and bash them. Do the customers a favor and refer the customer to an agent thats closed some. Most of the listings out there are short sales and bank owns in my area and by trashing every short sale verbally, you make it harder for me to do my job when I get the customer...
