The odds are in your favor on this Northern Virginia Short Sale priced at $274,000.  Why are the odds in your favor?  Well, the experience of this Northern Virginia Short Sale Listing Agent has a lot to do with it.  I have been listing Northern Virginia Short Sales since 2007.  And going over my statistics the other day, I realized that 100% of my Northern Virginia Short Sale Listings get Short Sale Approval on their contracts.  If you're willing to wait a minimum of ninety days to get into this condo and call it home, this may be the opportunity for you.
