Debby Boiros, ABR,CDRS's Q&A

There are several ways to find a short sale.  The most obvious is to contact a REALTOR. another way is to access websites (must pay $$) to see where in the "short sale process" the home is.  It can be pre-foreclosure, or notice of default, etc..  These can be found in the newspaper or at the Registry of Deeds.Please be advised that this process can be taxing on the buyer.  It can involve months of waiting for the lender to accept the short sale.The easiest way is to contact a Realtor who will do the legwork for you.  A buyer agent in Massachusetts may not charge you since most times the commission will come from the sale of the property.If you need more help, feel free to contact me.
