Local Realtor earns distressed property designation
ANDERSON — Local Realtor Bill Carter of Re/max Real Estate Groups has earned the Certified Distressed Property Expert designation, having completed training in foreclosure avoidance and short sales.
Short sales allow the cash-strapped seller to repay the mortgage at the price that the home sells for, even though it is lower than what is owed on the property, and more lenders are willing to consider short sells because they are less costly than foreclosures, according to a Re/max press release.
