  Valparaiso IN Real Estate Short Sale Reference for F.C.Tucker 1st Team Real Estate   3/25/2013       Hi Jeff,   Please feel free to use this testimonial.  I'd prefer that my first name only be used.   Thanks again for everything, Sarah   We were faced with a complicated short sale of our home.  After having been denied a short sale once by our lender, and losing the original buyer, we started the sale process from scratch.  My online research led me to Jeff and Grace.  After meeting with both of them for an in-depth consultation and learning about Jeff’s short sale expertise, we had no doubt they would serve as our best advocates.  Jeff and Grace moved with impressive speed; they took high quality photos of the house, listed it, and began showings immediately.  Within weeks we had two...

 Not every short sale is the same. Hasty and Sweeping generalizations about them, are, by definition, illogical. Valparaiso Home Sellers who had previously listed their short sale property with another real estate company called us after the listing contract expired. They found us after searching online for REALTORS experienced with short sales. We met, toured the property, and went over the process.   After 10 days on the Market with F.C.Tucker 1st Team Real Estate the sellers accepted an offer to purchase with the condition of their bank approving a short sale.   With all our listings, we encourage the sellers to continue to show their properties for back up offers. These Northwest Indiana home sellers accepted a back-up offer on their home. 45 days after the sellers accepted the offe...
