Are you trying to Avoid Foreclosure?
 Dear Homeowner, Do you owe more that your house is worth? Are you behind on your mortgage payments? Do you need to sell your home quickly? Do you have questions regarding foreclosure and/or short sale? Are you concerned about how your credit will be affected? If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, Fontaine Family - The Real Estate Leader can help. Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation and confusion regarding these issues and a very select few that grasp how to successfully lead their clients through such an important financial process. The experts at Fontaine Family -The Real Estate Leader understand the affects of this economy. We have extensive experience in negotiating with banks to significantly reduce your mortgage so that you can sell your home. The result is a smooth transaction and most importantly a stress-free experience for the homeowner. The key to a successful short sale is having a knowledgeable real estate professional on your side. Our clients will attest to quick sales and aggressive bank negotiations. Some have even received cash back for moving expenses. All with the added benefit of protecting your credit against foreclosure. Don’t hesitate to gather useful information for such an important decision. Give us a call for a friendly and no obligation phone consultation at 207-784-3800. Ask for Brenda. Sincerely Brenda Fontaine Broker/Owner 
Real Estate Tips
Accepting An Offer >Responding to Low Offers
The beginning of negotiations is usually the end of many months of hard work for the buyer or seller. The work ahead requires skill in order to maintain a strong position.
Sellers can lose their advantage if they do not counter an offer that a buyer has made. Even if the opening offer is beneath what the seller feels is reasonable, it is advisable for the seller to respond with a slight reduction from the asking price. The most important component in negotiating is good communication.
The best way to handle a low offer is to counter it with definite terms that are favorable to the seller. A counter offer has two advantages: 1) it keeps the buyer interested, and 2) it moves the negotiation forward and gives the buyer the opportunity to submit another offer that the seller is more likely to prefer.
