With all this talk about short sales and foreclosures in Colorado Springs there are many consumers as well as REALTORS who are uncertain about what a short sale is.    Let’s first start with a simple explanation of a Short Sale and then discuss who is a candidate for a short sale.

What is a “short sale?”

It is a sale in which the lender authorizes the property to be sold for less than what is owed on it, and it occurs before foreclosure.   Essentially the buyer purchases the property for less than the seller’s mortgage and the seller’s closing costs.    The seller is either unwilling or unable to cover the difference.

Lenders want to lessen their losses.  If a short sale will give them less of a financial loss than going through a foreclosure, they will go for the short sale.   If there is a second (or third) lien holder on the mortgage, they also enter into the equation.  These other lien holders also have to agree to the short sale.
