wow...awesome response Ron....appreciate the time you spent to write that.  Yes...I am a newbie investor...I am looking to buy.  I am not a realtor.  I have been working with three different realtors and I am starting to see the differences in experience.  I think the inexperience of the one realtor let me down.  I will now seek out a realtor with short sale experience...that appears to be my biggest hurdle as of now.

Thanks for reply.  As far as junior liens...when would this info become available to buyer? Before or after making offers?

Aloha everyone,

Hoping to get a better understanding of how to address a current situation that has come up several times. Houses are listed on MLS as a short sale. When I start digging up info as far as owners, when previously sold, listed mortgages and so on....it would seem as though many of the listings are listed for more then what I approximate would be owed. Since they are listed with an agency/brokerage....much of the info on the shortsale timeline and owners situation is hard to find out. So any thoughts on what's going on or what I can try to do? I know short sales can be difficult but I am willing to put in some work to have extra open opportunities available to me.

Mahalo,

Kris

Aloha Mariah...check back with me in six months to a year...by that time I should have enough experience to give you a real opinion on the local market.

Aloha James...thanks for chiming in.  I'm glad to see a response from someone local.  I had definitely planned on coming to check it out...I just missed the last one bc I was out of town for business.  Mahalo

Aloha everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself to the community and get involved.    My name is Kris Devers and just started learning about real estate investing.  I have successfully operated my Dental office for the last ten years.  I recently came across real estate investing with my brother in law and we started our own company.  I have completely become enthralled with how much their is to learn with real estate investing and am really looking forward to this journey.  I am a newbie and we are currently starting with flipping/rehabbing single family homes.  I am a true believer in surplus versus scarcity mindset and with that in mind, I look forward to networking and helping others in my area.

Mahalo,
Kris
