Nuclear M asked:

I would like to know how to get involved with real estate “short sales”…I love customer service, but I want out of retail and the R.E.S.S. breed of service can save a lot of people a lot of money, as apposed to convincing them to spend more money as you so often find yourself doing in the retail environment. However, I don’t have money to spend on seminars, boot-camps and other such conveniences or money traps (should that be the case). I would really appreciate anyone who would be willing to take their time to teach me at no cost up front…and i have no problem arranging appropriate kickbacks for the kindness once I get going. Thank you in advance for your time.

It is so hard to pick a mortgage lender. They can only give you a range of interest percentages. You don’t know the rate til you commit to them after you have already paid the application fees. What is the best lender in Florida for would-be homeowners?
