From your mortgage lender's standpoint, it's all about smart business. If the bank has to complete the entire foreclosure process, it could lose more money than it could recover by agreeing to a short sale. The lender will assess the profit and loss potential in both foreclosure and short sale scenarios, when deciding on approving your short sale.
Keep in mind all the costs of the foreclosure process, plus the bank's costs of owning a home while waiting for a buyer. Assuming a bank owns a property for an average of three months in today's market, costs can include Attorney Fees, Utilities, Maintenance and Repairs, Property Insurance.
Add those costs to the interest already lost on the mortgage, and the bank is looking at a loss potentially adding up to tens of thousands of dollars. The costs keep adding up.
