Short Sale Client Reviews

“We would like to send a thank you for all your hard work on the short-sale of our house. Your expertise and guidance made us feel very comfortable with pursuing the short-sale of our house. Even being outside of your area, you managed to keep us informed and in good hands with the professionals in our area.

Although the process was a long one, we really appreciate how much time and effort you put into making sure that we knew what was going on from the very beginning. We would be happy to work with you again when either one of us is ready to buy a new home and will be sure to recommend your services.

Thank you for doing a wonderful job and for taking care of our every need throughout the process.”

“Jim and Sheryl helped us out in a time of our lives when nobody else was willing or capable. Just when we thought we had nowhere to turn, they stepped up to the plate, and worked with all parties involved in the short-sale of our home to great avail. We can’t wait to work with them again when we purchase our second home. Thanks Jim and Sheryl!!!”

“Sheryl, I wish to thank you for your assistance in short selling my property. It is refreshing to work with someone who does what they say and by when they say it will be done. Your professionalism, experience, knowledge and no BS approach was greatly appreciated. Anyone looking for a Realtor that gets things done will be well served by working with you. Again thank you.”

“I have spent the last year working on being approved by the banks for a short sale. Even though I had 2 offers, with a different agency, they never became final, for one reason or another.

When I changed agents and went with Smith Real Estate Services, I instantly saw the differences between my last agent and yourself. You jumped right in, at the 11th hour and helped me get my house ready for Open House, even when I live 400 miles away. You were my eyes, ears, and support, from such a long distance.

Even though the house fell into foreclosure (which had no reflection on you) at the last second, (after all your hard work to get a cash offer on the bank’s desk), I am so grateful for all your hard work and undying positive attitude. We got down to the last second on this Short Sale Approval and if only you had more than a few weeks to get an offer, I am sure you would have finalized this sale for me.

Because this was a new experience for me, I can see my mistake in not choosing the right Agency. You constantly kept me apprised at all stages of the sale and kept my spirits up when I became frustrated with the whole process, and again I can’t thank you enough.”

“I was referred to Smith Real Estate Services to discuss a short sale for my home in Pollock Pines by a friend of mine that knew Sheryl Smith.† Sheryl was very professional and provided me with all the information I needed to decide if short sale was right for me. Sheryl contacted my lender and they did an appraisal on my home and set a minimum sale price they would accept. It only took Smith Real Estate a little over 3 months to find a buyer interested in my home. Sheryl assisted me in getting all the paperwork that was needed for the short sale to my lender. My lender approved the short sale and escrow completed within a little over 30 days. Smith Real Estate Services is extremely knowledgeable in areas of short sale and foreclosures. I would recommend them to anyone needing this type of real estate transaction.”
