		<description>Wow JP - you actually made me snort with your very humourous and even more unrealistic prediction of next year&#039;s REI Blog Battle results. The best part for yours truly is it will be solely Julie&#039;s blog if she does not win next year. But WHEN she wins, it will be OUR victory! Either way, I win. 

Hey, do you have a concise, informative blog post or article clearly explaining how &quot;short sales&quot; relate to &quot;foreclosures&quot;? I basically understand the process of being foreclosed upon and that the bank takes over the property. But at what point does the short sale come into play? And, why would a lender allow a short sale vs. ??? (what other strategies are there)?

Your clever and informative response I await!

		<description>JP,

I cannot believe you used your daughter to get votes. Now, just because Julie used not only our dog, Bram but also her parents 13 year old lab Chewy to help us WIN the Battle, it&#039;s still wrong to go to that level, yes?

I look forward to next year&#039;s competition!

Oh, by the way, at some point I would love to get your thoughts on the glut of &quot;short sales&quot; phrasing being used in Real Estate Agent&#039;s listings these days (in the U.S. anyways).

Cheers!

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hey, Dave - thanks for stopping by, and &lt;em&gt;attempting&lt;/em&gt; to make me feel bad for having posted that picture of my daughter crying because not enough people had voted for her daddy.  I can&#039;t help that she&#039;s so adorably devoted to her Daddy that she comes to tears sometimes in defense of my awesomeness in the blogosphere.  What can I say?  ;-)

And yeah, that&#039;d be an interesting topic to rap about.  I think Realtors are willing to use whatever language they think will get their listing found.  And with so many homeowners behind on payments, they figure they&#039;ll take any interest they can get, even if it means considering a short sale offer...and whether or not the bank&#039;s actually given them a reason to believe they&#039;ll consider it.  Just my initial thoughts.

Thanks again for stopping by!  And please forgive me in advance for demolishing your blog in next year&#039;s battle. :D

...jp&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
