Verona WI Short Sale Realtors® 53593 Are you looking for a Verona Wisconsin Short Sale Realtor or Real Estate Agent? Rock Realty is a real estate brokerage that specializes in Short Sales and Bank Owned Foreclosures in the Verona WI area. My name is Michael Collins, broker for Rock Realty. I have completed the Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource training and have been given the SFR designation through the National Association of Realtors®. Feel free to contact me directly at 608-921-8536 for help with any of your short sale questions. I have helped many home owners with their distressed property needs.

REALTORS® who have earned the SFR certification know how to help sellers maneuver the complexities of short sales as well as help buyers pursue short sale and foreclosure opportunities. The certification program includes training on how to qualify sellers for short sales, negotiate with lenders, protect buyers, and limit risk.

What is a Short Sale?
A short sale occurs when a lender agrees to take less than the amount owed to payoff a loan as an alternative to foreclosure. Lenders know that it will cost them a significant amount of money to take a property back. The Realtors® at Rock Realty can often convince them that they will be better off financially if they sell the property now rather than taking the home through foreclosure and trying to sell it later. So, a short sale can actually be good for the bank. It can also be good for the home owner, as it is typically better to perform a short sale on their Verona property instead of letting it proceed to foreclosure.

Short Sale Home Evaluation
Many home owners have preferred to first determine if a short sale is the right option for their Verona home. I have set up an online form that is very simple to fill out. Upon completion, I can determine if a short sale with your bank is the most favorable option. Often, we find that simply listing your home for fair market value is the best first step.

Real Estate Market review, Verona Wisconsin.

Real Estate Guy team likes to look at the Housing market in Verona Wisconsin. This time we have looked at 2 separate time periods in 2011 to compare house sales and homes on the market and such sales stats as Days on Market, DOM and % list to sale price.

All Verona single family homes - 2011

Real Estate Guy read on these stats : The only significant change is in the average price. In these consecutive periods, the listed price dropped by 3.5%, the home sale price dropped just 2%.

The length of time to sell has increased by 9%. This is to be expected as the spring market gives way to summer/fall market.

One extra notable is the % of hoes that failed to sell I their listing period dramatically increased. In the spring period there was a 31% chance of a home not selling. In the later period, that percentage nearly doubled to 55%. Over half the homes listed failed to sell.

I just spent a wonderful day enjoying the Ironman competition in our very own Verona. Actually I got up early to see the start in Madison when 2600 athletes started with a splash in Lake Monona, followed by a short 2.4 mile swim.

Next a 112 bike ride, which in large part is based in Verona. For the most part the locals are very welcoming, but there are a few grouches who worry that they can not get to church or some place, or their business misses some dollars. But be the crowds that turn out, the Verona bike ride is a good thing.

I love to see the athletes. We had breakfast at Grays Tied House, where we had a balcony view of the race. Then followed by a nap- it is hard work watching!!- we went into Madison to see a wonderful finish, a 26 mile run.

I so appreciate the inspiration provided by so many athletes who have dedicated themselves to the event. Whether professional or one time amateurs, they all garner my respect.

And my message to Verona, these athletes bring large amounts of money to the area for many months prior to the event, training, hotel stays, restaurants, bike shops, training facilities. I am sure this money has a knock-on effect to others.

And the cyclists leave with a great fondness for the community, and that is worth more than any amount of advertizing.
