Is a Short Sale Boom Coming?

A recent article from CNN Money suggests that a Shot Sale Boom is on the horizon.

Banks are ramping up short sales thanks to government incentives and the realization that short sales result in lower losses than foreclosures. On average, banks lose 50 percent on a foreclosure, but only 30 percent on a short sale.

That is good news for distressed homeowners who are looking for foreclosure alternatives, or who have been hoping for an expedited Short Sale. By avoiding foreclosure, and selling their home for it’s current market value, homeowners facing foreclosure can limit the damage done to their credit by the current foreclosure crisis.
