Scott Real Estate in Shelton has earned the nationally rec- ognized Short Sales and Fore- closure Resource certification. The National Association of Realtors offers the SFR certi- fication to realtors who want to help both buyers and sell- ers navigate these complicat- ed transactions, as demand for professional expertise with distressed sales grows. According to a recent NAR survey, nearly one-third of all existing homes sold recently were either short sales o fore- closures. For many real es- tate professionals, short sales and foreclosures are the new traditional transaction. Re- altors who have earned the SFR certification know how to help sellers maneuver the complexities of short sales as well as help buyers pursue short sale and foreclosure op- portunities. "As leading advocates for homeownership, realtors be- lieve that any family that loses its home to foreclosure is one family too many, but unfortunately, there are situ- ations in which people just cannot afford to keep their homes and a foreclosure or short sale results," said 2009 NAR President Charles Mc- Millan, a broker with Cold- well Banker Residential Bro- kerage in Dallas-Fort Worth. "Foreclosures and short sales can offer opportunities for home buyers and benefit the larger community, as well, but it's extremely important to have the help of a real es- tats professional like a real- tor who has earned the SFR certifications for these kinds of purchases." The certification program includes training on how to qualify sellers for short sales, negotiate with lenders, pro- tect buyers, limit risk and provides resources to help re- altors stay current on nation- al and state-specific informa- tion as the market for these distressed properties evolves• To earn the SFR certification, realtors are required to take one core course and three We- binars.

Yeadon has been decorated with the Distinguished Fly- ing Cross Medal. The medal is awarded to the person who, while serving in any capac- ity with the Armed Forces of the United States, distinguishes himself or herself by heroism or extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight. The performance of the act of heroism must be evidenced by voluntary action above and beyond the call of duty. The extraornary aclJevement must have re- sulted in an accomplishment so exceptional and outstanding as to clearly set the indi- vidual apart from his peers or from other persons in similar circumstances. Yeadon, a flight engineer with nine years of military service, is assigned to the 4th Battalion, 160th Special Operations Avia- tion Regiment, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash.
