SEARCHLIGHT — Let the Tea Party begin. A steady stream of RVs, motor homes, trucks, vans, jeeps and cars of every sort arrived a day early on Friday for the red, white and blue, U.S. flag-festooned festival where Republican rock star Sarah Palin will rally conservatives at noon in Sen.

Some buyers have made offers on short sales, then waited as long as six months to a year only to be denied lender approval. Approval from the seller’s lender(s) of current loans secured by a short-sale listing is necessary if the proceeds from the sale aren’t enough to pay back the lender and cover the seller’s closing costs. About one in three short-sale listings never sell.
