This was a short sale.
Short sales take a little longer to close than a standard sale. The property was listed in early January 2012 and was under contract in only 34 days.
List date to closing date was only 133 days – about four and half months. From contract date to closing date was still only eighty days which is actually not bad for a short sale!
Home prices in Brevard County have stabilized and even risen in some areas. Not long after I listed this home an "investor" stopped by while I was working on the sign out front. He was quick point out to me how this home would never sell for more than $85,000!
