Top New Port Richey Real Estate Agent successful in navigating short sale for homeowners

Many homeowners are still underwater today, whether from back "before the bubble popped" in the mid-2000's, or maybe even after the fact, from refinancing.  Either way, navigating a short sale for homeowners in Tampa Bay can be a very ugly process.  

Unless, of course, you're working with a top real estate agent like Profusion Property Group at Keller Williams Realty in Trinity.

While almost all short sales are still a trying and lengthy process, Shakespeare once said, "all's well that ends well."  And this is no different for one Port Richey homeowner that was underwater on his mortgage still.  After successfully negotiating an above list price contract in only 1 day on the market, Josh Parker & his team at Profusion Property Group were successful in facilitating a short sale on not one lien, but two. With the second lien being a "HELOC" (Home Equity Line Of Credit).

Their team is comprised of a fantastic short sale facilitator, Laura Hebein at National Title Solutions, Inc. who assisted along the way to push Bank of America to approve and accept the short sale.  Once approved by Bank of America, the task was then shifted to securing an approval for the HELOC from CitiBank.  You guessed it, they were successful in obtaining a full release of lien from Bank of America and CitiBank, both.  No promissory note to the homeowner, and no cash required at closing, either.  

To say that the homeowner was elated, would be an understatement; see for yourself:
