I know a lot of people that are stalling the process and actually getting the banks to stop calling simply by asking specifically to "produce the original note"Here is an article.http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/?

It seems this state has one or two big players in each market then several small potatoes like me.

I would keep an eye on the MLS and your other sites and I would move on.Spend your time on an actual deal where the players are known.

Join your local real estate association and find out the players in your area.

Especially anyone wondering about the "magic formula" of working short sales:http://www.thinkbigworksmall.com/mypage/player/tbws/23088/1153419-Brian

Also national players Lima One Capital, Corevest, Visio all lend to LLCs.

Big, medium, small players still looking for excess room.

I would highly suggested getting to know you local market and players in that market.

I’m not a big player in this game but earned, part-time, an early retirement with the ability to do pretty much anything I want.  

In addition, you'll be networked with big players in your game.
