What is a short sale?

A short sale is a transaction in which a lender allows a property to be sold for less than the amount owed. Short sale transactions allow homeowners to sell their home for less than the amount owed while allowing home buyers to purchase a house in move-in condition for a reduced price!

A short sale is a much shorter road to recovery than a foreclosure!

After pursuing a short sale, the transaction will affect your credit score by about 50 points and can be as brief as 1 year! Whereas, a foreclosure will lower your credit score by at least 250 points and will have a devastating effect on ones credit score for at least 3 years!

A foreclosure remains a public record permanently and will show up on ones credit history for at least 10 years. A short sale, however, is not reported on a credit history or public record, therefore will not follow you for years like a foreclosure does!
