If this is not a NAR designation then does it really count towards your credentials?  I would like to speak to someone in greater detail about this designation. 
Sherri Elliott Comment by Sherri Elliott on August 22, 2011 at 4:29pm
Elena I use a Title company to do my HUD that way they can already do the title work and search for any liens on the property that seller may not have told me about! No suprises later! If you are loyal to them..they will do it for you as long as you close with them!

I think it is great that you offer this training since you are sending us referrals. This way you know we are better equipped to process those transactions the way you would like them to be. I am going to take the training. Thank you!
Mike Linkenauger Comment by Mike Linkenauger on January 28, 2011 at 1:29pm
We don't use an automated HUD software.  We work with a GOOD local closing attorney who prepares prelim. HUDS on demand for us.  They do a good job.  That would be a good question to pose in the "discussion" session to see what agents think who have experience with this sort of thing.
Elena Coman Comment by Elena Coman on January 28, 2011 at 1:05pm
Hi , can you recomend what is the best Automated HUD softwere? Thank you
