Short Sale Rocklin - What is Short Sale Contingent? One of the first questions I usually get from short sale buyers in Rocklin is "What does short sale contingent mean?" Short sale contingent means that the seller has already accepted an offer on their home but they are still waiting on their lender to approve the short sale.  While waiting for the short sale approval, the MLS listing is labeled "short sale contingent" and will not actually be "pending" until the bank issues an approval letter. Here is my latest short sale contingent home in Rocklin:  5820 Pebble Creek Drive in Rocklin is a Bank of America short sale.  I've closed over 80 short sales and REOs with Bank of America and can't wait to start negotiations!  Bank of America has one of the best short sale departments in my expe... 05/15/2011

This morning I have been trying to reorder my cat's prozac prescription through an online drugstore. Yeah, my cat has his own account online. For some reason his account isn't working -- probably because his password has been temporarily misplaced in those boxes up in my attic. So, I asked for a new password. It's just not happening. It's not happening because I can't recall the answer to the stupid security question. Who came up with the question of Who is Your Childhood Hero? Blasted stupid question. There are so many. Was it Rod Serling? George Reeves? Or maybe it was Howdy Doody? I dunno. Perhaps I said Mae West. Damn, I hate this. But I don't hate this next short sale listing. I love it. It's absolutely stunning for a home in this price range. This is a 3-bedroom, 3-bath home in th... 04/19/2011
