Home Affordable Mitigation Program and Short Sales
When a property owner is facing the possibility of foreclosure, a short sale may be an effective way to avoid the need for such drastic action entirely. Taking a high mortgage and negotiating with a lender to transform it into a short sale can offer a property owner precisely the relief that he/she needs in order to protect his/her financial future. Typically the owner would choose a short sale to avoid a judgment deficiency from the lender as well as a potentially better credit report.
