“Jon’s patience with us and depth of market knowledge resulted in helping to get my wife and I in the perfect first home. He was very accommodating and not pushy. He listened to what we were looking for and didn’t waste our time with other listings. Highly recommended. He gets things done.”

-Marc Giannone

“Jonathan was an excellent realtor for my husband and I when we were looking to buy our first home. He was available to see the endless houses we wanted to look at and he was very knowledgeable about foreclosures and short sales, helping guide us through a difficult process. We’ve successfully purchased our first home and LOVE it, thanks to Jonathan!”

“Jon was great, he took me to look at every place I was interested and met up with me right away. He gave me a great recommendation on a broker. Gave me honest opinions on the places we were looking at. Being a first time home buyer, it was a scary process and I didn’t always know what i was looking for and what to ask. He was very helpful in this process and made it as easy of a process that it could be!”

-Christy

“Jon was great. He was very friendly, professional, and was genuinely interested in finding us a home that we desired. As first time home buyers, it was important for us to be with a realtor that knew how the home buying process works. He was very knowledgeable about the steps along the way. We would consider him a friend and recommend him highly to anyone looking to buy a house.”

"We have know Jon for some time, but only recently hired him to aid us with a particularly troublesome short sale.  As I expected, Jon did a great job performing the more routine tasks associated with listing our home. However, Jon's experience and adept negotiation skills really came out after the mortgage lender repeatedly lost our paperwork and cancelled our shortsale.  In a professional and capable manner, Jon got our short sale reinstated and successfully brought our house to closing.  Especially impressive was his calm and collected approach - despite repeated frustrating events with our lender."

"Jon helped us short-sell our home in record time. We were all surprised by how fast he was able to bring a buyer, negotiate with the lender, and close the deal. He also helped us find a rental home to move to (which wasn't exactly a financially rewarding transaction for him). Jon is a great guy, a knowledgeable real estate agent, and you'll appreciate having him in your corner during the negotiation process. We highly recommend!"

Step 1: Short Sale Pre-Qualification

Question:  Do you qualify for a short sale?  That's the first step in determining what direction you should move with your house.

Step 2: List and Market Your Home

While there are small differences to how a Short Sale is marketed, it's almost identical to selling a non-distressed home.

Knowing your competition is the first step towards pricing your home to sell.  Find out what your home may be worth.
<a href="http://www.realscottsdaleliving.com/service-partners/home-warranty-providers/"><strong>Home Warranty Providers</strong></a>
A home warranty during the first year of home ownership will give you the peace of mind you need when it comes to your home's systems.  Each provider has their own policy, which is why it's important that you investigate all of your options.
Mortgage Lenders
A Mortgage Broker and a Mortgage Banker are two separate animals.  Make sure you're dealing with the right company, and avoid the big banks.

Before you buy that house, make sure you inspect it using a reputable company with experience.  Just like any other service provider, not all inspectors are worth the money you'll spend.
