Tom Schieber's Q&A

Yes, this house is on the market and is an "approved" short sale at $380k. That means you "should" be able to write a contract at that price and get it closed within a reasonable amount of time. And at that price, with those upgrades - that's a pretty good deal. Contact me directly and I can show you the property at your convenience.

Barbara,Contact Brian LeBars at Vintage Mortgage - he's up on the new programs to help REFINANCE folks in your situation. He can probably help. brian@vintagemortgagegroup.comIf it turns out you have too much negative equity (too far upside down) I can refer you to a fully compliant loan modification service. But beware the scammers out there... Tomtom@windermere.com

I live and work in Brentwood, have listed and sold more than two dozen homes out here in the past twelve months (not REO's - but traditional sales). Contact me directly and I can give you a pretty godd idea where the market is at.Don't sell if you don't have to (in this market), but if you need to sell it's the right time of year... tom@windermere.com
