Julie Dorathy Earns NAR Short Sales and Foreclosure Certification
Buyers and Sellers Benefit from REALTOR® Expertise in Distressed Sales
Santa Rosa Beach, FL April 13, 2010 - Julie Dorathy with Prudential Coastal Properties has earned the nationally recognized Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource certification. The National Association of REALTORS® offers the SFR certification to REALTORS® who want to help both buyers and sellers navigate these complicated transactions, as demand for professional expertise with distressed sales grows. Julie has been helping buyers and sellers along the Emerald Coastal navigate the complicated issues that often surround short sale. She has successfully closed all of her short sale listings with one left in a contingency status at this writing. She has also worked with numerous buyers in securing short sale and REO (bank owned) properties. According to Ms. Dorathy, attention to detail, the ability to set realistic time frames, effectively communication with all parties involved in the transaction, and continued follow-up are keys to success in the short sale and foreclosure marketplace.

According to a recent NAR survey, nearly one-third of all existing homes sold recently were either short sales or foreclosures. For many real estate professionals, short sales and foreclosures are the new "traditional" transaction. REALTORS® who have earned the SFR certification know how to help sellers maneuver the complexities of short sales as well as help buyers pursue short sale and foreclosure opportunities.

The certification program includes training on how to qualify sellers for short sales, negotiate with lenders, protect buyers, and limit risk, and provides resources to help REALTORS® stay current on national and state-specific information as the market for these distressed properties evolves. To earn the SFR certification, REALTORS are required to take one core course and three Webinars.
Client Testimonials
"A person could not find better real estate agents than Julie and Mike, especially if you are trying to buy long distance. As land-locked lubbers in Mid-Missouri, Julie's help was invaluable while we were building our house. She constantly checked on the progress, kept open communications between us and the builder and followed up when necessary. I truly believe our house would not be as great as it is without Julie's help.
Even following completion, Julie and Mike continued to look out for us. During last year's cold wave they went out of their way to check on the outside shower. Also, Julie made sure that the last few details not completed at closing were addressed. Having Julie as your real estate person is like having a good friend in the trenches for you.
I highly recommend Julie and Mike to anyone looking for a place on the Emerald Coast. I would be happy to speak with anyone considering them."

"For over 25 years, I have been a banker and lawyer, and have done thousands of real estate transactions. Without a doubt, Mike and Julie made the process....long distance sale and purchase ....easy. Without any reservations, I highly endorse them."
- Bradley Small

"We have been pleased to work with Julie and Mike in the acquisition and sale of several homes in the Destin area. In each transaction Julie and Mike have distinguished themselves by professionalism and eagerness to assist with frequent requests. While other realtors regard extended assistance as favors; Julie and Mike regard such assistance as “part of the job”.
- Bill and Shelley Elder
"When Julie and I have a mutual client, I know that she is going to be on top of things in order to make sure that all parties involved are on the same page. She is a joy to work with and her customers always have positive things to say about her."
