    A short sale is a sale of real estate in which the sale proceeds fall short of the balance owed on the property’s loan. It occurs when a borrower cannot pay the mortgage loan on a property, but the lender decides that selling the property at a loss is better than going through foreclosure proceedings.

    In some cases, the difference is forgiven by the lender, and in others the homeowner must make arrangements with the lender to settle the remainder of the debt.
