Stacey Ogg earns Short
Sales and Foreclosure
Resource Certification
Stacey Ogg with John L.
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. For more information

Sergeant receives
the Distinguished
Flying Cross Medal
Army Staff Sgt. Stanley G. 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. He received the Distinguished Fly-
ing Cross in 2009 for heroic actions taken
in support of special operations in Afghani-
start.
He is the son of Michelle Ballinger of
Youwood Way, Port Orchard, and Stanley
Yeadon of Bremerton.
His wife, Filicitie, is the daughter of Wil-
liam and Dana Buck of Belfair.
The staff sergeant graduated in 2002
from South Kitsap High School, Port Or-
chard, and received an associate degree in
2010 from Olympic Community College,
Bremerton.
