Some say short sales never close, never work and are not worth showing… here are some Contra Costa and Alameda County short sale listings available and some noted successes (for details on any listing go to Contra Costa Real Estate.)  Much of a short sale success will depend upon the listing agent and/or the entity performing the negotiations with the lender(s).  Do your research!  Ask questions!  Work with only an agent experienced in short sales.
