There are currently 60 Brookside homes on the market with an average of 113 days on market and an average price per square foot of $240.27.  Of those 60 homes, over half (31) are short sales.  Short sales are becoming more and more popular as declining values are putting people upside down on their mortgages.  Short sales are more difficult because the lender must be persuaded to take less than the outstanding balance for the sale to be successful.  Be sure to work with a Realtor that is experienced and certified in foreclosure alternatives.
