Deborah Sorum, Professional Short Sale Negotiator

After working for Western Washington’s largest emergency call center, Deborah began her career in real estate by purchasing and managing foreclosed properties on behalf of private investors. She was promoted to a management position with a national franchise, Homevestors, (“We buy ugly houses”) in both Colorado and Washington State. She acquired homes in pre-foreclosure and managed the rehabilitation of the properties for resale. After the sale of the HVA franchise, Deborah returned to working with private investors. In seeing the great need for experienced short sale negotiators, Deborah partnered with Brenna Martin to form Sormar Short Sale Negotiators. As a licensed real estate agent and certified distressed property expert, Deborah has facilitated hundreds of successful short sales over the past eight years.

Brenna Martin, Professional Short Sale Negotiator

After 5 years of service in the United States Marine Corps, Brenna spent several years as a 911 call taker and police dispatcher at Western Washington’s largest emergency call center. She made a career change to Real Estate, and has been successfully facilitating short sales since early 2008.
