When it comes to Wellington Florida Short Sales based on absorption rate it’s currently a STABLE Market almost boarding on a sellers market, but is it really? Often times Wellington short sale agents will keep their listings “ACTIVE” in the mls even though they have an executed contract submitted to the sellers lender for approval. Some of these short sale agents do it because they are interested in receiving back up offers while other times the Wellington short sale agent just didn’t get around to changing the status.

If you are thinking about buying a short sale or selling your Wellington FL home via short sale make sure to hire a Wellington short sale agent who is experienced with the short sale process.
