SHORT SALES DEFINED & WHAT INFO TO PROVIDE LENDER & REALTOR

Here's my definition in a nutshell: A short sale is nothing more than negotiating with loan holders a payoff for less than what they are owed. Otherwise, a sale of debt generally on a piece of real estate, short of the full amount owed. It does not extinguish the remaining balance unless this is clearly settled in the acceptance of the offer. Often a bank will allow a short sale if they believe that it will result in a smaller financial loss than foreclosing since there are legal and other carrying costs that are associated with a foreclosure. This occurs on a daily basis since many homes have loans that are considerably higher than the current value of the home.
