Certified Foreclosure Prevention Consultant
I am happy to announcer that I have just received my certification as a Certified Forclosure Prevention Consultant. This is the finalization of a RE/MAX approved supplier, Roger Butchers' course designed to train agents to deal with Loss Mitigation and Short Sales, should that step become necessary.
We are all very much aware of the rapid expansion of the Short Sale market and the many misunderstanding and confusion that it with-in the industry today. Roger Butcher has created a company to first, mitigate loan modifications between lenders and homeowners prior to foreclosure. As a Certified Foreclosure Prevention Consultant it is my responsibility to locate, and work with home owners who are currently in the foreclosure process or soon to be in this situation. Many homeowners who face foreclosure are not aware of the many options that are available to them. Therefore they do nothing. Fear sets in and fear is advanced by poor advice from well meaning but uneducated friends. In an effort to avoid foreclosure, it is often possible to work with the lender and negotiate a Forbearance, Partial Claim or Loan Modification.
I am looking forward to working in this field. Although Loss Mitigation is a definitely not a bread winner, it is an opportunity to return to the community a valuable service. If we can help someone save their home simply by being knowledgeable and passing it along, is that not a great service?
Now that I have my certification, I am now ready to work with anyone who has Amelia Island real estate and is facing foreclosure or at worst a short sale.
