I've been closing short sales for many years. In fact, I close a huge volume of short sales. Even so, as a Sacramento short sale agent, I still haven't seen it all. I know this to be true because every single day I seem to learn something new. That's part of what keeps my profession interesting.

It's not what you don't know that will kill you. It's what you know for certain that you know that will do you in. And when you're a Sacramento short sale agent like me, you get the opportunity to be constantly amazed at crap. It sort of comes with the territory. Believe me, I do not profess to k

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. There is very little in between. Especially when it comes to short sales. As a Sacramento short sale agent, I close a lot of short sales. Our market is inundated with short sales. I've been specializing in short sales for 6 or 7 year
