Other California licensees call us if:
- A home client got a Notice of Default or Notice of Trustee's Sale. The client needs a short-sale package or a sale before the auction date.
- A residential agent has a client who owns a commercial property. It may be retail, apartments with 5 or more units, industrial, office, or land. The loan comes due soon or is in default.
- A commercial broker wants a partner. The deal may be a sale before the auction. It may be a recapitalization or a receivership sale. Or it may be early talks about a note sale.
