This market can really wear you down. I know because it wears me down as well. In the world of real estate, you must be persistant and know how to play the game. I am with a client for about a year now and we have made multiple and numerous offers. I am actually amazed at how my client is still willing to go for it. The same goes for me. I have to find that extra energy and positive outlook to keep plowing through the hard times (now).
Don’t give up!!!

Running the red light is a very painful and expensive experience. I know because I have just received that picture of myself running the red light along with the traffic citation. So not only do I now have to deal with the anxiety of getting the actual ticket in 3-4 weeks, arrange for traffic court and/or arrange for traffic school, go in front of the judge if I should desire to try to knock down the fine, but I am stuck with the heavy penalty of paying it off along with the traffic school fee to keep the “ding” off my driving record.
This is very similar to what some clients go through because they feel they know more than their agent. As a realtor, I have the experience that should be trusted by the client as to what the procedures are for different types of real estate sales. I advise my clients as best I can in order to get that investment property he/she wants.I give them advice on what is needed to be done, do things in the order necessary to expedite the experience. I also prepare them for what may or may not happen. In doing so, as the agent and client, we need to work together and obey the rules set down by the real estate market, lenders, and other buyers and sellers.
Trust your agent and take their advice if you really want to succeed in this market.

This is the most exhausting time to buy real estate. Perseverence will pay off if you are not in a hurry. This process can last 6 months, give or take a day or two. You have to be ready to play the waiting game on offers submitted, be resilllient to withstand the rejected ones and energetic enough to forge forwrd onto to many offers. If you think you have the mind and body to do this, then the answer is YES to the short sale world.
Just remember that this is a slow and long process. However, if you are one of the fortunate ones to land one and get your offer accepted, it can be all worth it.
