I have never taken one. I referred that business out and collected a nice referral fee... not in my wheelhouse.

Never. 

    When the Short Sale Craze got underway 10 years or so ago, I decided to refer them out.  Looking back, I am glad that I did!

Just a couple of month ago, but 2 weeks ago someone called to do a short sale and they actually owed less than it is now worth and we avoided the short sale.

I don't remember...it's been that long...maybe 6-7 years? The last short sale that I worked the buyer side was 4 years ago and I don't miss them at all.

We work very closely with an attorney who specializes in short sale negotiations and we just closed on a short sale - 47 days from signature to closing. I'm not afraid of them any more and have a few in our inventory.
