When does the lender agree to a mortgage short sale process?
A lender sometimes would rather go through the short sale procedure to avoid keeping bad loans on the books. However, the borrower will need a good reason for the lender to agree to a short sale - illness, unemployment or family matters may be considered and pointed out in the hardship letter.
Also, the lender's decision to accept a short sale will depend on whether it is cheaper to fix and sell the property and if the lender's got too many properties on short sale.
