The Newport Beach real estate market has both short sales and  foreclosures. The definition of a short sale is when a bank or lien holder lender agrees to accept a discounted payoff on a loan balance as a result of  either economic or a financial hardship on the part of the mortgagor.

The  banks or lenders want fair market value for the property and will attempt to obtain the appropriate value of the home. A bank or lender may request more than one BPO (broker price opinion) and obtain independent appraisals.

Currently there are 16 active listings, 50 in back up status, 24 pending and there were 9 sales in April, 2012.
