Feeling Underwater? You're Not Alone.

Many homeowners find themselves living in homes whose market values have dipped below their mortgage balances—commonly referred to as being “underwater.” Whether due to divorce, job relocation, job loss, or unexpected expenses, this situation can feel paralyzing—especially when foreclosure looms. But a short sale offers a timely lifeline.

What Is a Short Sale—and Why It Matters?

A short sale occurs when your lender agrees to accept less than the full mortgage balance in order to allow the home to be sold. Unlike a foreclosure, which can devastate your credit and delay future homeownership, a short sale tends to be less damaging and can offer a faster resolution.
