            <title>Foreclosure Halts - Bank of America Lifts Moratorium</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ This is a great piece written from someone within our business, and I thought it would be good to share:&nbsp;There have been a lot of recent headlines about the foreclosure moratorium put in place by several of the nation&rsquo;s largest banks and I felt it appropriate to communicate a brief explanation of where we are and how this may, or may not, impact our market and to also update you on the latest headlines.In short, this issue came about after the discovery that many of the nation&rsquo;s... ]]> </description>

            <description> <![CDATA[ Charleston Foreclosure List for July &amp; August 2010I am seeing a tremendous amount of foreclosures lately, with some
clients being very happy, and other clients walking away from a
horrifying situation.&nbsp; If you plan on purchasing (or are a part of) any
short sale right now, please take a look at the list and make sure that
the short sale you&rsquo;re after isn&rsquo;t listed.&nbsp; While short sales and
foreclosures are often glorified, they are not to be taken lightly- you
need to... ]]> </description>

            <description> <![CDATA[ The Charleston real estate market has been in a slump for the past four years...When will this trend end?Well, there is not going to be a clear-cut, definitive turnaround if you're looking for one.&nbsp; Real estate, which has traditionally been a solid investment, has been jittery (at best), right along with every other market.&nbsp; There isn't going to be a solid, radical change in direction in the Charleston real estate market in the immediate future.&nbsp; There are just too many foreclosur... ]]> </description>

            <description> <![CDATA[ Just a quick reminder to all of you buyers out there trying to get a steal on the next short sale deal in Charleston.&nbsp; A lot of the time, there are wonderful deals (read in: steals) that can be made when purchasing real estate via short sales in Charleston.&nbsp; Most of the buyers I&rsquo;ve encountered fully understand that a short sale is basically a seller that is behind on mortgage payments.&nbsp; They can be 2 months behind, or 7 or more months behind in their monthly mortgage payment... ]]> </description>
