I support a family of five on my income, and I am building this business every spare second I have.I have done intensive research and study in my chosen field, and I will continue to learn every day.

Its so much easier than it used to be, I would only use a web designer for tweaks and customizations beyond what your chosen theme can provide for you, and most of them have everything you need.

Jason lots of fraud and criminals out there trying to make a quick buck.You could be sucked in and chosen "guilty by association" in the deal.We have a saying in the business.This deal has "too much hair on it" and you need to walk away.Many of these techniques with short sales squeaked by 3 or 4 years ago before bank guidelines were in place.Now with systems you cannot get away with anything if you wanted to.Before there were shades of grey that were closed out.I would see buyers write up a bill of sale and pay the seller 4,000 for JUNK for personal property.At the time certain things didn't have to be disclosed.Short sales made up only about 1 percent of loans when the market just started turning.So anyone looking at short sale techniques make sure they work TODAY and not from years ago.You will pay dearly for using old techniques that can get you in trouble that are not allowed today.You have to adapt and structure deals to stay in compliance with the ever changing laws.
