Many home owners are unable or unwilling to update or renovate their home and prepare it for a retail sale. Most of the time, renovating a home requires a lot of time that people don’t have.

A portion of your mortgage will be forgiven which means you do not have to pay back to the bank once a short sale has been approved.
