A real estate short sale sometimes occurs when the property owner owes more than the property's current market value but the owner has a hardship and needs to sell. In a typical (non hardship) situation, the mortgage lender(s) will require the homeowner to deposit the difference in the amount owed to the escrow company to facilitate the closing.
In a real estate short sale, the seller’s real estate agent and/or attorney negotiates with the lender(s) to accept a pay-off that is less than the mortgage balance and the homeowner does not to pay the difference (nor bring any funds into escrow).
