Once again I did not realize that as a Realtor I have been speaking in jargen. Short Sales I know what that means but does anyone who is not in the industry have a good understanding of the meaning? Short Sales are properties sold short of the amount due on the note. The note could be held by a bank, lending institution or private party. It means when the sale goes through the bank does not get back the money they origionally expected to get back on the loan. Most of potential seller's are not aware that the lender might take less than what is due. Therefore, they let the property foreclose. Or if the become aware that this is a possiblity they do not understand that the bank not only takes less but pays all costs including the Realtor fees. I assumed they understood some of this...
