Is it unethical for a SS agent to tell clients the amount of offers received?

Answer
Its never a good idea, but In short sale situation its less of an issue. In a non-short sale situation.  This would definitely be a BIG problem

Was it crazy of me to put a seven day expiration in a short-sale offer?

Answer
The owner should sign the contract quickly then put it under SHOW or DEPOSIT status and set it to the bank with their Short Sale Package to get the bank to accept the net balance as the amount to pay the loan in full.

Is it true that for REO properties, I should offer equal or higher than the listing price ?

Answer
You have to use your best judgment about the area, sales prices, actual market value, list price, condition, repairs, and competition.  For me it all boils down to a formula using what the After Repair Value is worth.  If my figure is less than asking than I offer less, if it is asking or above I estimate the competition and offer asking or above.

What is the advatage of Make Me Move over a regular MLS listing with an agent

Answer
'Make Me Move' is only shown on Zillow.  Usually set for more than the property is worth and is just for fun.  Its highly unlikely to find you a buyer.

18 Saint Marc Cir UNIT O, South Windsor, CT shows it was sold on 05/15/2007. I never sold it.

Answer
when I look up sales on the MLS some units are listed at 'O-10 Saint Marc', '4-O Stain Marc', '0-17 Saint Marc' .. so it might be confusing to Zillows system when it try's to decipher the address.
