Newport Beach Short Sale Market Update | May, 2012

by Sharon Paxson on June 30, 2012 · 0 comments

The Newport Beach real estate market has both short sales and  foreclosures. The definition of a short sale is when a  lien holder or bank 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.
