I did some research online and found there are some very nasty estate sales people out there. When I found one I liked, I checked them out with the state Dept of Justice to see if any compliants had been filed against them. I also looked at their business name filing with the state to make sure their license and insurance are current. This company checked out fine so I think I will interview them. It's really hard when you don't know anything about their business. So sorry they left you with such a mess.<br /><br />As a former banker, I have to agree with the Carol and Johnny about the short sale. Sometimes you have no choice but please be careful.Donna Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161069942110860372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-70205160872254549052011-05-09T18:15:03.981-06:002011-05-09T18:15:03.981-06:00Estate Sales are always tramatic, and it sounds li...Estate Sales are always tramatic, and it sounds like yours was not that well handled.<br />But..it's over. Take a deep breath and get on with your new life. We went through the same thing and once we decided to just get over the pain, we felt free and renewed.<br />Our thoughts are with you, doing this is one of the hardest things you will ever do.<br />I can't recommend short sale. Give yourself time to recover from the sale and then call a good reputable rental agency and check them out with the Better Business Burue and google their company name and see what comes up.<br />Give yourself a pat on the back for finally dealing with things and relax, your REAL adventure is about to begin!MyTinyTropicalGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10427068299785906672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-49166485507739023552011-05-09T17:13:44.414-06:002011-05-09T17:13:44.414-06:00Well, except for the fact that you got it done and...Well, except for the fact that you got it done and will now be free of "stuff" I think the estate sale looked terrible. It looked like they turned your place into a junky thrift shop! What happens to the stuff of yours that didn't sell? do you get anything for it?<br /><br />I just hope they give you the check in a timely manner and that it clears!Merikayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378095339747943548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-64795068195397419322011-05-09T13:52:41.919-06:002011-05-09T13:52:41.919-06:00Sometimes if your follower doesn't have a pict...Sometimes if your follower doesn't have a picture loaded, they will go to the back of the pack. They usually just have a shadow picture. Just place your curser on them and you may be able to find them that way. <br /><br />I would never rent a property out, but to each his own. To me, it always had too many dollar signs attached. Ins.,taxes, up-keep, them complaining about stuff.

It MAY not affect your credit greatly, but it could also be that the lady you spoke to just hasn't had it hit her report yet.<br /><br />Carefully read all the fine print of the short sale docs from the bank and have your attorney and/or tax specialist look them over. You generally have to prove that you can no longer afford the property to qualify for a short sale. Sometimes you are liable for income taxes on the difference between the loan amount and the sale price. AND short sales can take a REALLY LONG TIME once you have an offer. In the meantime you are still responsible for the mortgage, insurance, etc.<br /><br />If you can rent the property for enough to cover expenses, I would hire that good property manager you mentioned in another post and hang on to it. Never say never and you still look pretty young so you've still got time to turn the real estate around.Carol Kerrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12120710780618404080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-56647816030637468472011-05-09T10:23:34.585-06:002011-05-09T10:23:34.585-06:00Wow - you where really taken!!

Plus, not only did they bring in a lot of other peoples junk but they sold items clearly marked as not for sale.<br /><br />My opinion of people has gone down over the years. It seems more and more they are simply in it for themselves no matter what they tell you and they'll you use to make a buck any way possible.<br /><br />Good luck with the rest of it!<br /><br />ErikErik's RV Blog https://www.blogger.com/profile/17149039572885361450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-4021172652442251382011-05-09T07:56:49.928-06:002011-05-09T07:56:49.928-06:00Almost empty?
