SUZY EVANS EARNS PRESTIGIOUS DESIGNATION TO HELP HOMEOWNERS IN DANGER OF FORECLOSURE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) June 10, 2009 -- Suzy Evans of Davidson Realty, Inc – St. Augustine, Florida has earned the prestigious Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) designation, having completed extensive training in foreclosure avoidance and short sales. This is invaluable expertise to offer at a time when the area is ravaged by "distressed" homes in the foreclosure process.

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. With plummeting property values, this may save many people from foreclosure and even bankruptcy. More and more lenders are willing to consider short sales because they are much less costly than foreclosures.
"This CDPE designation has been invaluable as I work with sellers and lenders on complicated short sales," said Evans. "It is so rewarding to be able to help St. Augustine and Jacksonville homeowners save their homes from foreclosure."

Alex Charfen, founder of the Distressed Property Institute in Boca Raton, Fla., said that Realtors® such as Suzy with the CDPE designation have valuable training in short sales that can offer the homeowner much better alternatives to foreclosure, which virtually destroys the credit rating. These experts also may better understand market conditions and can help sellers through the emotional experience, he said.
The CDPE is the premier designation for Realtors helping homeowners in distress and handling short sales. “I have been able to educate homeowners on their available options and assist with negotiations with their bank.” Suzy explains. “Relieving the stress and uncertainty for families that are facing foreclosure is the most rewarding feeling."

Suzy has set up a website to give homeowners valuable information at www.suzysellsshortsales.com.
