What are the advantages and disadvantages of a Short Sale? A short sale is the sale of real estate (property) where the amount of the sale is less than the amount owed by the borrower to their lender. This is an alternative to foreclosure. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know that most lenders will require the borrower to show a type of hardship. Examples of a hardship are loss of income, divorce, unemployment, medical illness, etc. Some lenders will consider you for a short sale if you are not in default; if you can prove you can no longer pay the loan and will soon fall in default. Several lenders offer cash incentives to those who execute a short sale paid at the closing to the borrower start over. The greatest advantage to the borrower is the avoidance of a foreclosure on their record. Check out below to see what sold in Windridge Place in November 2015:
