“Avoiding foreclosure through a short sale can have significant benefits for a person’s future financial stability,” said Marc Cormier, a Real Estate Consultant and Certified Distressed Property Expert, Divorce Real Estate Specialist and Seniors Real Estate Specialist. “A successful short sale can reduce the damage to one’s future loan eligibility, credit rating, employment, security clearance and more—and it’s important to work with a competent team.”

Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) January 18, 2011 —
