What Is a Short Sale?

A short sale occurs when a homeowner sells their property for less than the outstanding mortgage balance, with approval from their mortgage lender.

For homeowners experiencing financial hardship, a short sale may provide an alternative to foreclosure and an opportunity to move forward.

Every homeowner's financial situation is different, and lender approval is required.
