I don't know about short sales so can't offer any guidance. 

It was very valuable.  

Most here can't define real property and why it is valuable or explain why RE is unique and different fro other investments, The basis for valuations, nor have I seen much on the three valuation techniques of property and why one is given more weight than another.

Is there any way I can check for the bid amount or any other valuable information pertaining to it?

Hi Ryan - there are tons of valuable resources out there. 

My friend needs some guidance on best way to structure the deal.I appreciate any recommendations.

Share your most valuable information!

I think if you are just learning an RE agent's class would be more valuable.

Thanks for any guidance.
