What exactly is a CDPE?  The earned designation stands for Certified Distressed Property Expert.  A CDPE is a real estate professional with specific understanding of complex issues confronting the real estate industry. 

Through extensive training and experience, CDPE's are able to provide solutions for homeowners facing hardships in today's market. 

Conversely, while working with Buyers seeking value in pricing on distressed properties, it is beneficial to work with a CDPE who understands the processes of the different distressed properties. 

Foreclosures vs Bank Owned Properties (REO) vs Corporate Owned Properties vs HUD Owned Properties vs Short Sales all have different procedures to get a property sold.  Buyers can greatly benefit with a CDPE's knowledge of the foreclosure market, in general, and the proficiency in working with the seller, whether it's a lender, builder, or HUD.
