Kenneth Urman of Ewing and Clark East has earned a Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) designation, having completed training in foreclosure avoidance, with a particular emphasis on short sales. At a time when millions of homeowners are struggling with the possibility of foreclosure, this type of specific training will benefit sellers in short sale situations.

Short sales allow the distressed homeowner to repay the mortgage at the price that the home sells for, even if it is lower than what is owed on the property. Lenders are willing to consider short sales because they are less costly than foreclosures. Contact Urman at kenurman@comcast.net.
