A Short Sale is a home listed for sale by the current home owner, but the home is now priced at a point where the homeowner no longer has any equity. When sold the net proceeds will be less than the amount owed to the lender. The final sale price needs to be negotiated with the lender; the homeowner/seller will not receive any funds from the sale of the home. An astute and patient buyer will benefit from purchasing a short sale. Learn more about short sales.
A Bank-Owned (often called "REO" which means "real estate owned") is a home that is listed for sale by the Lender and is owned by the lender as a result of a foreclosure. This an excellent buying opportunity because the lender is very motivated to sell. Lenders do not want to own homes, they want to loan money. The carrying costs and risk of vandalism due to vacancy provide an incentive to the lender to move a bank-owned home quickly off of their books.
