RE/MAX Agents Earn CDPE Designation
Jodi Musgrove, Olga Duran, Doug Lawrence, and Gail Riley have completed extensive training and coursework to become certified as Distressed Property Experts (CDPE.) Loan modification, deed in lieu, forbearance, short sale, bankruptcy, and foreclosure each have a different and significant impact on a homeowner’s credit, and income tax liability. Riley said, “Understanding the level of distress and the options available to borrowers is very important in a crisis market.” “Families facing financial distress should call for this free information,” indicated Lawrence.
RE/MAX International is promoting and underwriting the education cost and process. Duran commented “it is amazing the information we now have available to assist homeowners.” ”We use systems to package a short sale that greatly increase the approval/acceptance rate, and decrease the normally long time to close, indicated Musgrove.” Broker Ed Evans boasted “My goal is to get the majority of our agents certified.” It is often possible to package and close a short sale before a foreclosure has been filed. This fast track alternative to bankruptcy and foreclosure has a minimal impact on the borrower’s credit.
