My real estate practice specializes in helping homeowners that might be facing mortgage difficulties.  If the homeowner wants to stay in the home and try to get a mortgage modification, I'll help with that.  If they've had a mortgage modification that isn't working and the lender has told them that their only options are a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or a short sale, I'm the very best that you'll find for a Maine short sale transaction and the lender will pay for my services.

I've received extensive training with the Distressed Property Institute (www.CDPE.com), I'm one of the few Realtors in Maine with CDPEAdvanced training.  I've committed to a series of webinars every month for ongoing training as lenders and government programs are changing at a feverish pace and only Advanced CDPE's have access to this ongoing training.  I'm also certified with the National Association of Realtors as a SFR, short sales & foreclosure resource.

I'm  one of the few Realtors doing Maine short sales that handles your file from start to finish.  Many Realtors are outsourcing your file to 3rd party loss mitigation companies but I feel that my client has a better chance at a quality short sale submission if I do it all.  CDPE's have been trained to do the entire short sale process but not all practice this method as I do.

Nearly 1 and 6 of every homeowner in the US is having mortgage problems.  You're not entirely at fault and it's important for you and your family to know your options so you can make an educated decision about the path that you want to take to salvage your financial future.  Foreclosure can and should be avoided and I'll go over the process with you. 

The Maine Real Estate Network, a Maine-owned real estate agency, had the foresight to start a new short sale division because of the many Maine homeowner's that are facing mortgage difficulties.  As head of this new division, I work with our nearly 70 agents when they encounter a Maine short sale situation whether they have the buyer or seller.  If the homeowner wants to stay in the property via a loan modification, we'll work to that end even though we won't earn a commission.  We want to help with this national problem and if we're sucessful with our clients, they'll refer us to their friends and family.

There are a lot of FREE reports on this site to explains your options but you have to leave contact information.  If you rather not leave contact information, you'll find the same reports at www.KevinBishopRealtor.com at no charge and you won't have to leave contact info.  I believe this is the Maine way.  Give the information and you'll contact me when you're ready now that you've found me.

When you're ready, give me a call.  We can go at whatever pace you're comfortable with and you'll be happy with the results.  Call my office at 207-774-4224  Ext. 231 or my cell phone at 207-650-6851.  I work 6 days, Monday thru Saturday.  I am here to help . . . . in any way I can.
