Do you think your mortgage is “too upside down” to do a short sale?  Think again.  Many Sandestin Florida homeowners bought houses and condos with loans over a million dollars in 2004-2007.  Today, those property values might worth one-half of their original purchase price. With such high dollar losses and faced with financial difficulty, many of these homeowners don’t think they have a chance at a short sale.  Heck, even some real estate agents question me before showing my Sandestin listings.  They say: “I checked public records.  You have that property listed at a BIG loss from the original mortgage amount. Can you even get the short sale approved?” What? The loss amount?  Why are you asking me that question? Any loss amount can be approved – if the other ingredients in the short sa... 05/31/2011

For Administrative Professionals Day, so I took my wonderful Rulnick Realty administrators, Rachel and Beth, to lunch.  We decided on Tommy Bahama's restaurant in Grand Boulevard in Sandestin Florida, since it was on the way to our new listing in Holiday Shores.  The ambience at Tommy Bahama’s is what I call “plush”.  Throw pillows, dark wood, rattan, and paddle fans make it feel like a rich Caribbean vacation.  The food is what I call “sumptuous”. We started with the Big Island Goat Cheese as an appetizer.  It was a cone-shaped pile of crumbly goodness, glazed with soy and covered in macadamia nut crumbles.  The cheese came with some of the most delicious, crispy flatbread I ever had.  (If no one was looking, I could have eaten it all). For lunch, we had the Chicken Salad Junkanoo (wh... 04/29/2011
