Here are 10 frequently asked short sale questions that are very helpful especially if you are just getting started or considering short sales as a means to acquiring pre-foreclosures.
1. What happens to the seller’s credit rating…
Q: What makes a bank decide whether to take a discount on a defaulted mortgage or not? And what formula do they use to decide how much to take? Some banks I’ve talked to have just said no to a discount right away, and others seem perfectly happy to negotiate any offer, even if it’s a fraction of the loan amount.

Bill Syrios, Eugene
Married to Teresa for 32 years, with 4 sons. Began Stewardship Properties in 1989 and has been in real estate investment full-time for 17 years. In 2005 he expanded Stewardship’s reach through internships and a 2nd office: StewardshipProperties.com
Kenny Weaver, Eugene
Married to Audra and has a daughter. Was a plumber for 20 years in Las Vegas. In 2005 he decided to “plunge” full-time into real estate investing. So, he sold his house in Vegas (does Kenny have great timing or what!?), moved to Eugene and never looked back.
Jered Souder, Eugene
Started out as a full-time real estate investor at 21 and still the youngest on the team. Lives in a home he bought as a great deal but never got around to installing the new kitchen cabinets. Oh, the life of a single guy. Is an expert on tracking, valuing and bidding foreclosures at auction. His dog: Roxy.
Michael Wilson, Eugene
Married to Shanon with a very cute daughter in stow. Has an MBA but never considered the corporate world much of a draw. The most mechanically inclined of the Stewardship team with a hankering for monster trucks.
Morgan Braze, Portland
After graduating from Oregon State Univ. he decided to get a REAL JOB so he immediately became a full-time real estate investor! Has more wander-lust than most and has already done real estate investing in Corvallis, Eugene, Salem and now Portland.
Jon Davis, Salem
Graduated from the Univ. of Oregon with a law degree but couldn’t see himself practicing law and giving up the life of a real estate tycoon. So he “enrolled” in Stewardship’s 2006 summer internship and graduated again–into becoming a vtal partner on our team.

Should you hire a real estate investment MENTOR?
That depends how much time, energy and money you have to tolerate the “trial and error educational method”? Depending which way you look at it, the right mentor can save you or make you thousands and thousands of dollars. So, when it comes to real estate investment, who is the RIGHT mentor? Here’s some questions:
.How long has this person been investing in real estate?
What kind of real estate investing has he/she done?
How many deals has he/she done?
How much is his/her average profit per deal?
Where have he/she found the capital?
What do his/her private lenders think about them?
Do you want to be where he/she is at three/five/ten years from now?
Now: What is it going to cost you? In commitment? In money?
If it is true that you “get what you pay for,” the last thing you want is free real estate investment advice! Make sure you are getting the kind of coaching that will help you reach your goals by someone qualified to give it. And one more question: Why hire an individual when you can hire a team?
