What is a Do not Call Letter and How Can it Help Me?

Hey, I’m Saul Carter here with Others Realty, one of Modesto’s leading short sale teams. I wanted to talk today about a do not call letter or a cease communication letter. Basically that’s a letter by the fair credit reporting act that if you notify the bank in writing that you don’t want them to contact you, they are not allowed to contact you by law. Now the stipulation is they have to be able to contact somebody, so once we have the third party authorization then you can go ahead and send the do not call letter.

It’s one of those things that a lot of my sellers really appreciate because when they do a short sale with me and I send off the do not call letter or the cease communication letter then they do not get calls in the evenings. Sometimes it takes the bank a little while to figure it out, like I’ve sent it in but they haven’t told the right department, but we’ll get them taken care of.

Finding out a way to stop these calls is one of the things that a lot of my sellers really appreciate. Anyway, here’s to doing real estate the Others way. Give us a call if you have more questions about that or if you just want them to stop calling you, we can help you there too. Even if you don’t care if it goes to foreclosure, but you just want them to stop calling, give us a call we can help you out. That might be worth it in and of itself right there. So, fill out the getting started form and we’ll get you taken care of right away. Again, I’m Saul Carter with Others realty, on of Modesto’s leading short sale teams. Thanks a lot and I’ll talk to you soon.
