Because short sales are currently net 80-82% of Fair Market Value to Fannie--which is more than Fannie gets from an REO sale, not to mention that by the time the property goes to foreclosure, it's worth far less in most areas of the country and has sometimes been vandalized. http://www.rebuild.org/news-article/foreclosure-and-stripping-homes/ To ensure that the former homeowner is ready to purchase again in two years, s/he should pay all their other debts on time and use no more than 50% credit capacity on credit cards.According to the Mortgage Debt Forgiveness Act of 2007, the amount of mortgage deficiency (known as "phantom income") will be forgiven if the house is owner occupied.

I have been looking for short sale leads from a foreclosure lists website.
