Ready to buy a short-sale?

A short sale happens when the seller's lender consents to receive a reduced sum to release a mortgage.

Are short sales bargains?

From time to time, yes. Most people hear the words "short sale" and automatically think of a seller that is in trouble and needing to sell their house quickly to avoid further financial problems. This is occasionally the case and can be an opportunity for a buyer to make the most of another's misfortune. Alternatively, a lender may consider a short sale even if the seller is current, but property values have fallen. In these instances the reduced price may in fact be in line with current market values rather than below.
