ASK-A-REALTOR
Q: What is the difference between a short sale and buying a foreclosure and what are the pitfalls of
buying either?
A: Basically, a short sale is a sale of mortgaged property where the proceeds from the sale are
insufficient to pay in full the sellers outstanding mortgage and any other liens against the property
and the seller lacks sufficient other assets to pay the remaining amounts. The lienholders (mortgagor)
must agree to voluntarily release their respective liens or a sale will not be possible. That must happen
first and the seller must qualify financially for this debt reduction, which requires a lot of paperwork
and time. More pitfalls here are the likely lengthy process to, first, get approval for the short sale, then
a lengthier path to closing. The process can take several months, or longer. (Note: some banks have
streamlined this process so it may be possible for a normal closing after the approval is given.)
A foreclosure is where a bank/mortgage company has already taken back possession of a property
from a property owner it is now bank-owned. The pitfalls of purchasing a foreclosure are many.
They almost always are sold as-is, where-is, meaning the bank will make no repairs nor offer any
warranties. Foreclosures are often in need of substantial repairs. That condition could exclude the
propertys suitability for a number of loan types. Buyers often have a very limited time to conduct
inspections, and the inspections should be thorough. Banks often provide a non-warranty deed so an
exhaustive title search is always a good idea.
Either way, you should find a Realtor who has experience in helping buyers purchase either
one. Their experience can help take some of the worry out of the process. Good luck!

furnishings, look for leather or
canvas items. Fur tends to slide
off such surfaces. When updating
flooring, opt for hardwood, tile
or laminate floors that will be
easier to keep clean of pet hair
than carpets.
4. Keep rubber gloves on hand.
Dampen rubber gloves and run
your hand across surfaces that
attract fur. The fur will stick to
the gloves and make fur removal
that much easier. Dryer sheets
and balloons can also effectively
remove pet hair.
5. Brush pets often. Take your
pet outdoors and routinely
groom him or her to dislodge
loose fur. Some specialty shampoos are said to help release the
undercoat of a pet and promote
strong new hair growth. Professional grooming can also limit
the amount of fur in a home,
but don't expect it to eliminate
it entirely.
