One down 2 to go

Hey Friends, just a quick update.
Remember the one we needed to close with agreement from the first mortgage holder and an expired one from the second? Well it all cam trough. The bank gave us until the 28th to close.
Now I am chasing the title company and the buyer so that they can get their act together.
The one that needs to close tomorrow is still No Go. I called the buyer's agent and asked for an extension. Meanwhile I chase this second mortgage holder for an answer.
Then the other one that needs to close on the 17th. I've sent him all he needs. Still think they can't pull this one of in 2 days.
On the marketing side all goes well, we are getting more than 800 letters out this week, talking about how we can help people. Let's hope some of them listen :-)
Also marketing of our next weekend sale goes on schedule, tomorrow John takes pictures and prepares the video tour so check that one out on www.sellthatmonkey.com
Today a lady called she's upside down on all her properties, three months behind in payments on two of them. I think we can help by negotiating a short sale. But she still is in denial ...
Denial is your worst enemy
I have a friend who picks houses up from people in distress, he asks them the following question: on a scale from 0 to 10 how do you judge your motivation to sell? when they reply anything below a 10, he replies... call me when you are a 10
that means call me when you're desperate...
I really hope that I can catch people before they turn into a 10
Our goal is to HELP not to take advantage... but some people still think they'll solve it... an they won't..
too bad
