What is a short sale?
In the case of a short sale, the borrower (working with his or his legal or real-estate professionals) is given permission by the lender to sell the property at fair market value (in the case of that value being lower than the amount owed) with the bank forgiving the remainder of the loan. In other words, the lender agrees, in writing, to consider the final amount paid as the loan pay-off, essentially forgiving the difference in the amount owed and the amount received. While this option may sound too good to be true, it makes a great deal of sense to the bank when the cost of foreclosure is balanced against the loss incurred by the bank on a short sale.
