Short sales is a much faster way for the bank to take over of the property, which gives them enough time to get the home in good condition for resale. In addition, a study reveal that more people are prefer to buy short sale properties than those in foreclosures.
Late last year, the Bank of America began piloting this program in Florida, offering defaulting home owners who agree to complete a short sale with up to $20,000. It was followed by JP Morgan Chase offering up to $35,000 to complete a short sale.
