Martha is honest with excellent skills.
When I came to the conclusion I was going to have to a short sale my home – I spoke to a friend and he mentioned he knew someone who could help me. That evening - I sent Martha an email with my pertinent information. Martha Clampitt called me within 4 hours – scheduled a home visit the next day. I was very unsure of the process of a short sale – and very uncomfortable with the lack of knowledge I had going in to the process. I was very stressed, sad to sell my home – and I am so thankful I found Martha Clampitt. My house was sold in ONE WEEK!!!

Titles >Liens Against the Title
Occasionally homeowners who are trying to sell their home are surprised to learn that their title is encumbered by a lien. There are several types of liens; the most common are mechanic's or contractor's liens.
The lien (or debt) must be paid off in order to be cleared. If the owner prefers to challenge the lien, he can release it by posting a bond, pending adjudication. In some types of liens, a title search may disclose claims against the property by an ex-spouse or long-ago heir of a former owner. A simple "quitclaim" deed may be used in these cases. By signing the deed, the person involved signs over whatever rights he or she might have, without laying any claim to the property.
Most real estate transactions involve at least some minor unresolved issues on the part of either the buyer or the seller. This is where an experienced real estate agent can provide solutions to resolve the issues and conclude the sale.
