Just because you haven't handled a Short Sale before, doesn't mean you can't work one. At Chaparral Realty Group we often have agents send their Short Sales to us so that we can properly handle and close them for you. You receive a referral, and it is a great way to learn more about short sale transactions. Like anything else, it gets easier the second time. By referring your Short Sale transaction to us, we can help you to understand what paperwork is necessary, what to expect and can also help ease some common misconceptions brokers have about Short Sale transactions.

Using a professional that has experience in handling the Short Sale process is crucial for the successful completion of a short sale transaction. It is just as important for that professional to have a firm understanding of the Foreclosure process from beginning to end. Short Sale transactions can be very complicated in that the standards of practice in the real estate industry are still in the development stages.

Finding a company and or broker that has the expertise to lead you through the Short Sale transaction whether you are a buyer or seller will be the difference between having a smooth experience or a nightmare. Make sure the broker you choose can provide you with a resume of past experience having handled Short Sale and Foreclosure transactions.

Closing a deal for your clients is great. Closing a deal and following up with a nice gift is better. But closing a deal - and then following up with a gift which simultaneously shows your concern for your client's safety while also helping to market your company or teams logo - that's just brilliant!!

Finding that perfect closing gift can be tough. It's hard to give one single gift to all clients, since each client has their own interests and hobbies. The best closing gifts are those which celebrate the purchase or successful sale of a home. Each closed deal feels like a success, so why not share that great feeling with your clients. At Chaparral Realty Group we make a point to think harder about how we interact with our clients. Great customer service results in a referral based business - and after all, isn't that what each of us are trying to build?

We recently learned of a fantastic product, which is both affordable and customizable with your company or team logo. And best of all - it's something EVERYONE can use. It's called Power Punch 911, and it's one of the most brilliant closing gifts we've found. Power Punch 911 is a unique and portable fire extinguishing spray in a compact can. It is effective against ALL types of fire (which makes it a fantastic problem solver for those in need of both grease fire and electrical fire extinguishers), it's light weight, non-toxic, and eco-friendly.

Best of all, Power Punch 911 can be used again and again, unlike a fire extinguisher which has to be refilled, recharged, and maintained after each use. There are no pins to pull and no messy foam to clean up after use - you simply aim and spray. Each can is conveniently sized to fit easily in your kitchen cabinet, next to the stove, glove box of a vehicle, garage, RV, boat, and even below the grill. Best of all, it is simple enough to use that even a child could easily extinguish a fire with it.

Check out: www.PowerPunch911.net where you can watch videos of this amazing product in action.

Here's a link to the webpage where you can customize these with your logo:

Here are some quick stats regarding fire safety:

According to the U.S. Fire Administration in 2007 the following statistics were reported:

* There were an estimate of 1.6 Million fires in 2007 in the U.S.

* 3,430 people lost their lives and 17,675 people were injured.

* Fire killed more Americans than all natural disasters combined.

* 84% of all deaths caused by fire occurred in a residence.

* $14.6 Billion in property loss as a result of fire damage.

POWER PUNCH 911 may prevent you or your property from becoming a STATISTIC!

Give the perfect closing gift, and let your clients know that you care!

Medford real estate is an ever evolving exercise in adapting to your market. At Chaparral Realty Group, we appreciate this challenge and have fun with staying on top of the market and its trends. Medford real estate brokers are finding themselves changing for the better. The days of "business as usual" are gone. Our business is unusual. Our clients are more educated than ever before, they realize that fantastic deals are available for those who are willing to shop. This causes brokers to have to try much harder to impress clients than in years past.

Some complain about this change, but most great agents realize that this change in broker culture is much needed. At some point in their real estate career most brokers have worked with change-resistant brokers who simply refuse to go the extra mile. This is generally quite frustrating, and can often lead to extra work in order to close deals. This general shift in buyer culture is forcing brokers to become better, or get left behind. In this fashion, those who once were able to get by on doing the bare minimum must now give good service in order to attract and keep their clients. It's simply better for home buyers, and better for our industry in general.

This change in buyer and seller expectations allows us to become the best we can be. It allows us each to re-examine what we do, and develop ideas for how to do it better. It takes great effort to be the best you can be in any profession, but the personal reward is well worth the time and patience needed to properly hone your skills and services. It's a great feeling when you're headed to a listing presentation and you know you're about to blow your competition out of the water. Your potential clients notice this confidence, and it helps them to trust in you and your expertise.

Instead of looking at the market as an ever changing challenge, consider looking at it as the right motivation to become the best you can be. Consider how you might benefit by taking advantage of the need to change. Perhaps you're considering getting involved with some property types or transaction types you haven't yet been involved with. For example, many brokers are just now getting started in learning about short sales and bank owned properties. These are areas of the market which can help grow your business, and your allegiances with other Realtors.

Just because you haven't handled a short sale before, doesn't mean you can't work one.
