Hello Everyone:
I was asked a question yesterday and I thought I would share it with you. I was asked:"How long do short sales take to complete?" Wow! That's a loaded question...
But the answer is at least 3 months! I know that's not what you wanted to hear, but that's the truth! Be prepared to be in it for the long haul; that's why it is so important to have multiple deals in progress. If you count on one transaction to put food on the table, you might be losing a few pounds; if you have several deals in the pipe you will have a better chance of consistent cash flow.
Remember, you should always keep the lease option strategy in the back of your mind when dealing with pre-foreclosures...
Until next time be well.
James Gage
