Would you prefer investing in REO's or Short Sales

I've gotten to a position in my business where I would like to expand into different niches. For the experienced investors, which would you prefer and why would you choose one over the other if not both.

REOs to me are a thousand times easier.

Off market short sales are fun, the waiting time is still there but if you have the only offer in and can beat up the bank you are good to go...

I still prefer REOs.
