What is a Utah short sale?A real estate short sale is a process where the lender allows a homeowner to sell a property for less than the mortgage balance. In a short sale the lender agrees to accept proceeds from the sale that fall "short" of the amount owed on the property’s loan. Lenders only agree to short sales if they receive a full and complete package meeting the specific guidelines of that particular lender.Why do lenders agree to short sales?Why would a lender agree to take less than what is owed to them? The foreclosure process is long and costly to the lender so, in most cases, the lender is willing to consider taking a loss through a short sale versus a significant loss through foreclosure. Many lenders look at a short sale as a better alternative to foreclosure.How can I qu... 05/17/2016

 Can anyone tell me the name of this furry creature? As me and my friend were hiking in Cedar Breaks Utah last year taking in the beauty, we came across this furry creature sunbathing on the rocks, about the size of a small cat. We were not sure what it was when we first saw  the furry creature, it looked like a badger at first glance. There was a couple standing there looking at it also and we asked, "it that a badger"? They replied no, "That is a ____________". I cannot remember what they called it, but it was a very strange name. This furry creature was lying on the rocks right on the ledge of this cliff that dropped thousands of feet. If something was to startle this furry creature, it may have fallen to it's death. I have left you with two photos. One photo shows you a close up of ... 04/28/2016
