Do an online search for "short sale processing"… It seems to be a growing business.

Second, you can absolutely bet that I am going to be putting a picture on here soon.

bumpdateSo I've looking around online and doing a bit of driving around and I'm starting to begin to narrow in on what I am looking for in a home.My apartment lease ends at the end of May and I think I want to have a home of my own by this time.I have not yet spoken to a lender about getting the money for a house, but I have enough to make a 10% downpayment on a home, I am looking to purchase something between $150-$200k for myself to live in for the next 3 years (up to 5) and then sell.I have been looking mostly at townhomes between 2-3 bedrooms, 2-3 baths, with appliances (stove, dishwasher, fridge).

I'd bet Idaho is packed with cash flow.Tim

I don't trust their values for a second.Best bets for comps for minimal cost include a real estate agent and a title company.

I would rather have an "Equity" partner that puts up the cash, than to "Bet the Farm" on a deal...

Glad you are back online...

Michael & Andy & JohnThanks for the valuable insights.In order to buy far away from where you live i.e. in my case PA or deep down in South Jersey may be better bets.
