Short Sale beats Foreclosure


Short Sale beats Foreclosure on Credit Report

A "foreclosure" is a court settlement process involving legal action and possible attorney fees. A "short sale" is a negotiated settlement with the lender, no attorneys required. Both show up on the borrower's credit profile, but the difference between a foreclosure and a short sale is the difference in the broken credit and badly dented credit. The short-sale consumer has better options much sooner in terms of buying another home, qualifying for loans or credit cards, securing reasonable interest rates, finding rental housing, even applying for insurance.
