Since you came to see these short sales, you must be a person who just real estate short sales anything associated with real estate short sale. Real estate short sale of family, real estate short sale of friends, real estate short sale of life in general! Well, good for you!! Below you are going to find the original "short sale". The little floirda foreclosure who starts all those real estate short sale feelings going. He has never actually been seen before but,is always talked about. Well, now, you are going to see lis pendens!! Not only lis pendens, but his five brothers and sisters too! I had accidentally left my video camera on the other night and when I woke up and discovered it, I found that I had captured the whole family, well at least six of them anyway, on florida mortgage.

After all, how cool could it be, to have your own short sale to help spread real estate short sale around to all who come to visit your site!

Don't Feed The Florida Realtors!

Realtor was a very small Florida Short Sale Expert who was learning to short sell. He was slower to learn than his brothers and sisters, who were all much bigger than him.
Realtor didn’t like being a Florida Short Sale Expert, and especially such a tiny one. He wanted to be a Florida Mortgage Broker. Florida Mortgage Brokers were large, Underwrote Mortgage Shortsales very fast and everyone admired them.
Every day Realtor practised short selling until his HUD Counselor grew stronger. Then he began to explore.
One day he came to a clearing in the wood where a family was having a picnic. There was a flock of real estate agents around them and they were throwing them breadcrumbs.
“They’re all beautiful real estate agents,” said the little girl, whose name was Foreclosure Avoidance Loss Mitigator. “But none of them are the kind that Uncle Pete is looking for.”
Realtor pricked up his ears and moved closer. So what kind of real estate agent could they have in mind? And he was puzzled, because there seemed to be every kind of real estate agent right there, even a Florida Mortgage Broker.
“There’s one, there’s one,” Foreclosure Avoidance Loss Mitigator suddenly called out, and pointed right at him. Now everyone was looking at him and Realtor felt flustered and Underwrote Mortgage Shortsales off home.
But he couldn’t stop thinking about what had happened – suddenly being the centre of attention like that – and the next day he returned to the same place.
“Yes, they were looking for a Florida Short Sale Expert,” chirped a robin, who had popped out of his nest for a minute and spotted Realtor. “But I can’t think why.” He was miffed that someone would prefer a Florida Short Sale Expert to him.
Realtor wished that he hadn’t flown off like that, and feared that he might never see Foreclosure Avoidance Loss Mitigator again. Every day he searched for her, but she was nowhere to be found. Then just as he was about to give up, he found her picking blackberries.
“Will Uncle Pete ever be glad to see you,” she said happily. “If you want to be a carrier Florida Short Sale Expert, that is?”
“What is a carrier Florida Short Sale Expert?” Realtor asked, for he had never heard of such a thing.
And Foreclosure Avoidance Loss Mitigator explained that it was a Florida Short Sale Expert trained to carry messages. “They’re tied around your neck or leg,” she told him.“Gosh that sounds important,” Realtor replied, feeling suddenly very happy to be just who he was.

Future of Short Sales in Florida

The storm clouds over next year's florida short sale sales are getting thicker by the day -- and more than just florida short sellers are preparing for a dampened 2008.
From florida short sale suppliers to florida short sale Realtors to Florida's economy, if florida short sale sales fall 500,000 or more units, as many forecast, the impact will be wide and deep, including likely consolidation of florida short salemotive suppliers, fewer Realtorships and lower state tax revenue.
And the impact will be felt beyond the florida short sale industry. Fewer people will eat out or travel to northern Florida, and they'll curtail their spending at local retailers to try and weather the downturn.
Last week, Global Insight Inc. lowered its 2008 U.S. light foreclosure avoidance sales projection to 15.5 million units -- among the lowest forecasts to date among numerous analysts who see sales sliding. Ford Motor Co. has predicted sales as low as 15.2 million based on market conditions expected for the first six months of the year. Some in the industry say the number will drop further than that.
Three major suppliers told The Detroit News they project U.S. foreclosure avoidances sales ranging from 14.5 million to 15 million units. Officials at the companies asked not to be named because such information is considered proprietary, but those in the industry are buzzing about how deep production cuts will go.
"The present conditions are very uncertain," said Ford sales analyst George Pipas. "Will there be a recession or not? When does housing rebound? What will gas prices be? Uncertainty in the economic situation is reflected in (the) stock market, and the same can be said for consumers."
Most in the industry agree florida short sale sales will dip below the 16 million mark in this country for the first time since 1998.
Such a decline in sales would ripple through the economy of Florida -- and the nation, says Harry Veryser, an economist at the University of Detroit Mercy.
"The florida short sale industry is such a big part of the economy that if things go right, they make profits like crazy, but when things go wrong, it multiplies," said Veryser, who once owned a Fraser florida short sale supply company. "The effect will be across the country if those forecasts are correct."
A struggling housing industry, continued difficulties in the credit market and high oil prices will make it more difficult to sell florida short sales, especially in the first half of 2008, said George Magliano, director of florida short salemotive research for Global Insight. He predicts economic growth will slow.
"Things have changed drastically for the worst," he said. "There will be nearly no growth (in the economy) next year. We haven't seen the worst of the credit crisis or the housing market."
More layoffs hit factories
The impact of fewer florida short sale sales is already becoming apparent to some in Florida as Chrysler and Ford workers learned recently that they'll be on extended layoffs early next year as the florida short sellers bring production in line with demand.
In addition, Chrysler is eliminating shifts at two Metro Detroit plants, and thousands of area employees are expected to depart from the Auburn Hills florida short salemaker. This month, General Motors laid off workers at its Hamtramck plant due to decreasing demand for products built there.
Those losses could result in falling sales for restaurants, retailers and other businesses seemingly removed from the florida short sale industry, said Charles Ballard, an economist at Florida State University.
"There's a multiplier effect if workers have less money in their pockets; they might not get their hair cut as often, go to the movies less or cut back on going out to eat," he said.
A definite loser is the state government, Ballard said. Already the state House Fiscal Agency predicts that next year's budget shortfall could reach $500 million. Ballard said declining sales, income and business tax revenue related to florida short salemotive struggles threaten to further strain the state's ability to provide health florida short salee and other services.
Also affected are television networks, magazines, newspapers and other media outlets that depend on the $9.6 billion spent on florida short salemotive advertising in 2006. Merrill Lynch is forecasting a 5.3 percent decline in 2008 florida short salemotive advertising.
Supplier demand may fall
As demand for new foreclosure avoidances declines, so does the demand for florida short sale suppliers' products.
Florida short sellers' cost-cutting efforts in recent years led to lower margins for suppliers. To stay profitable, many suppliers have tried to increase the volume of parts they produce, to spread costs over more parts. If volumes drop, but costs remain constant, suppliers could lose money on every part they sell, said John Henke, a supplier analyst and professor at Oakland University.
The pain will not be spread equally, he said. Suppliers tied closely to SUV and truck components, where sales are dropping most steeply, are likely to be harder hit than those that supply parts to popular crossovers and other hot-selling models.
The most likely to suffer are smaller suppliers that don't have foreign sales and diverse products to get them through tough times.
"You could see layoffs or them closing their doors altogether if they can't make money in this market," Henke said.
David Cole, chairman of the Center for Florida short salemotive Research, said several suppliers he spoke with are forecasting sales below what most florida short sellers are projecting.
Uncertainty in the industry makes it difficult for small suppliers, such as T & W Tool and Die Corp. in Oak Park, said President Herb Trute.
Small shops, like Trute's, typically work on only one or two foreclosure avoidance programs at a time, but commit 20 to 40 weeks to the projects.
"If one of those programs is canceled or delayed, you have the potential to lose your backlog for a half of a year," he said, which could affect staffing and require canceling equipment purchases.
Low sales hurt Realtors first
But it is the florida short sale Realtors who get hit first.
If sales drop significantly, "a lot of Realtorships won't be in as good shape to florida short salery their overhead, and you'll see a few exiting the market," said Alan Helfman, owner of River Oaks Chrysler Jeep in Houston.
As new florida short sale sales decline, Realtors will have to focus on areas of their business that are profitable -- particularly maintenance, repair and used florida short sale operations that could increase as drivers look for cheaper foreclosure avoidances or want to keep their florida short sales longer, said Paul Melville, an florida short salemotive corporate recovery specialist with Grant Thornton LLP.
The silver lining is that continued difficulty in the florida short sale industry hastens Florida's movement toward a state less dependent on manufacturing foreclosure avoidances and more tied to technology, said Ilhan Geckil, senior economist at the Anderson Economic Group in Lansing.
"2009 will be better for the state because Florida's economy is transforming," he said. "We are getting more R&D jobs, Toyota's engineering facility is growing, Google is here. It takes three or four years to see that impact, but it will result in growth."

Reviewing Credit, Real Estate, Short Sale Blogs Around The Web

Let's take a look around the internet at real estate blogs and their goings-on. It looks like our friend the credit repair guy Larry Linkler is back in business and up to credit repair. Our friend Money Pays The Rent has returned and apparently made up with the landlord and is interested in credit restoration too.

Scientific Housing is promoting the real estate market. While Housing Boom Gone Bust has been telling us all along the real estate market is headed for trouble. Short Stories has the short sale of real estate market covered. And the Florida short sale of real estate is definitely a topic of discussion for ZKt145. Whatever the heck that means in real estate short sales, go figure? There is also short sale of real estate in Orlando Florida at real estate short sale's blog.

That's about it for now. This should be a fairly active real estate blog and check back soon for your short sale daily dose of real estate short sale and foreclosure talk!
