Local agent Susan Giove provides alternatives for homeowners facing foreclosure

Susan N. Giove of Mann And Sons Inc. has earned the coveted designation of Certified Distressed Property Expert. CDPE agents have earned the reputation for being the best short sale facilitators in the industry. Giove decided to join the movement dedicated to solving the foreclosure crisis, one homeowner at a time.

“Too often, once homeowners find themselves on what feels like a roller coaster ride straight to foreclosure, they become totally immobile. The situation is complicated, and the stakes are high, which is the reason homeowners need an advocate who is knowledgeable about evolving developments in the short sale and foreclosure arenas,” she said.

“It’s a concern to me that so few in our community know their options when they start to fall behind on mortgage payments,” Giove said. “If they act quickly and get informed, they can make informed decisions to find financial stability.”

Foreclosure alternatives such as short sales - which now make up more than one-third of real estate closings across the nation - are an increasingly popular way for both homeowners and lenders to minimize their losses in this tough economy.

The CDPE designation Giove has acquired provides real estate professionals with specific understanding of the complex issues confronting distressed homeowners. Through comprehensive training and experience, CDPE-designated agents are able to provide solutions for homeowners facing financial hardship in today’s market.
