FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- What does the crisis in Egypt have to do with short sales and foreclosures? That's a good question, and Foreclosure Defense Attorney Roy Oppenheim has some good answers to share, along with foreclosure defense and short sale strategies in the midst of the storm.

As a foreclosure crisis meets an international crisis, Oppenheim Law and sister company Weston Title present a free real estate workshop that covers how the protests in Egypt, Florida's new governor's stimulus ideas, Obama's agenda, bankrupt states, and even massive snow storms are poised to make a direct impact on Florida foreclosures and short sales.

"The 'black swans' just keep on coming," says legal blogger and Florida Defense Attorney Roy Oppenheim. "We'll be exploring the Egypt situation, as well as reviewing some very important points President Obama emphasized in his State of the Union address in our next short sales and foreclosure defense workshop. The bottom line, short sales are the next focus in Florida."

Oppenheim's real estate workshop is designed to walk homeowners through various foreclosure defense strategies such as short sales, strategic default, loan modifications, deed in lieu and deficiency judgments, taking into account today's law and the homeowner's legal rights.

"The economy has a new set of rules!" Oppenheim says. "Learn how to apply those rules to help your current crisis and remove yourself from the situation in our short sales and foreclosure defense workshop. We'll show you how to reinvent yourself to adapt. Foreclosures are becoming passe. Short sales are the new economy in Florida."
