Stirling Sotheby's International Realty Associate is Qualified Short Sale and Foreclosure Certified by National Assn. of Realtors
ORLANDO - Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty associate Lauren Merrell recently completed a required curriculum and received the SFR, (Short Sales and Foreclosure Resource) certification by the National Association of Realtors (NAR).
Roger Soderstrom, founder and owner of Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty, said the technical training curriculum developed by NAR qualifies Merrell – one of his firm’s agents in the Brevard area – as an expert in short sale real estate transactions and foreclosures.
The recent increase in distressed home sales indicates a significant need for short sale and foreclosure expertise, Merrell said.
“In April of 2010 almost 40 percent of sales completed in Brevard County were either short sales or foreclosures,” said Merrell.
Short sales – selling properties with approval of the lender for an amount less than the principal owed on the mortgage – often represents a viable alternative to foreclosure proceedings for both sellers and lenders.
“I am now combining my knowledge of the luxury market and my training as an SFR expert to assist both owners of luxury homes experiencing difficulties and investors or buyers with their purchases of REOs or bank owned homes and short sales,” Merrell said.
Expertise in negotiating the best possible terms for the seller or buyer can offer substantial tax advantages too, she added.
“Stirling Sotheby’s International Realty began developing specialized skills in short sale transactions almost two years ago,” Soderstrom explained, adding, “and it has been very advantageous.”

Melrose Sovereign Companies’ Hands-On Management Style Nets 10 Percent Annual Revenue Growth despite Recession
ORLANDO- Melrose-Sovereign Companies, the Orlando firm that ranks as one of Florida’s largest community and condominium association management companies with offices statewide and more than 80 employees, reports 10 percent growth in revenues since its merger two years ago despite a recession that has hit the real estate industry particularly hard.
The company currently manages more than 170 condominium and community associations statewide with 2,500 individual homes.
Jack Hanson, LCAM, co-founder and partner at Melrose-Sovereign Companies, said revenues grew from $4 million in 2008 to more than $4.5 million in 2009. Revenues in 2010 should surpass the $5 million mark, Hanson said.
Hanson said the firm’s success can be attributed to a personal, hands-on management style.
Hanson and co-founder and partner Ellen Lumpkin, LCAM, are personally involved in the management of every community and condominium association statewide.
“We personally visit every community from Jacksonville to Fort Myers to Fort Lauderdale, and we play a daily hands-on role in the management of each association,” Hanson said.
Lumpkin said the firm’s ‘boutique’ management style is one of its most powerful resources.
“In this economy, every client is looking for authentic value,” Lumpkin said. “They want to talk with someone who can show them some results today,” Lumpkin explained.
That means a lot of statewide travel. Lumpkin estimates she’s on the road about half the time.
“We’ve tried to infuse our whole company with a fanatical attention to detail and follow-through,” Hanson said.
“The difference between a balloon economy and a real economy is real people responding with real results day-in and day-out consistently,” Hanson said.
Melrose-Sovereign Companies, formed in 2008 with the merger of Melrose Management Group and Sovereign Residential Services in Orlando, employs more than 80 professionals in offices throughout Florida, including Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, Palm Harbor, Bradenton/Sarasota, Port Charlotte, Fort Myers and plans to open a Daytona Beach office this year, Hanson said.
