What Is a Short Sale

by Gordon Hageman

Twitter Facebook Linkedin
A short sale occurs when a homeowner sells their property for less than the amount owed on the mortgage, typically due to financial hardship. The lender must approve the sale and agree to accept less than the balance due. While short sales can take longer to process, they allow sellers to avoid foreclosure and minimize credit impact. Buyers may also find opportunities for value — though patience is key.
