If the market value of your home is less than what you owe on your current mortgage, you may qualify for a legal, lender endorsed solution known as a Short Sale. A Short Sale can be accomplished by negotiating with your bank to agree to a sale of your property to a third party buyer for less than what you presently owe on your mortgage balance.
The short sale of real estate is not a questionable practice in today's softening real estate market, it may be a requirement. The short sale deal is a legal and much more beneficial alternative to foreclosure or even bankruptcy. Banks are motivated to accept short sale offers for a variety of good reasons.
