Episode 49: Surviving Short Sales with special Guest Gregg Pechmann of Fighting Back Financially, Mar 1, 2011.
There are a lot of people in the U.S. who have borrowed to the hilt on their homes to support their lifestyles, only to watch the value of their home drop. When you find yourself upside down on your home like that, it can be a very scary time of your life. In today’s show we interview financial coach Gregg Pechmann, who has lived through seven (yes, seven!) short sales. Nobody knows more about short sales than Gregg!
