		<description>Hi Folks!

I wanted to share with you a great site I just came across teaching &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kravmagabootcamp.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Krav Maga&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Online If you guys have seen the Tv Show called Fight Quest you would have seen their chief instructor Ran Nakash there. Anyways, I think it&#039;s worth a look. I&#039;ve been a member for the last 4 months, and I&#039;ve been loving every second of it.

Hope I&#039;ve helped someone here, 

all the best</description>

		<description>Hello Anon: you&#039;re right on about it not being a short sale; I misread the date I put down (2006, not 2008) but even if the date was 2008 should not have assumed short-sale given that we don&#039;t know how much folks put down for the down payment. And thanks for clarifying on short-sale vs. bank-owned. Thanks.

Hi Colin: it does seem likely they will lose a lot of money and unfortunately only after having the property for less than 2 years... Thanks for your comment!</description>

		<description>Just to clarify, a short sale means you&#039;re selling for *less than you owe the bank* even though you may be up-to-date on payments. For that reason, the bank gets to approve it, because they won&#039;t be getting all their money back through the sale. This is very different from being bank-owned--at that point, you&#039;ve missed payments and the bank has foreclosed on your property and owns it in full. Short sales are usually listed as such because they are more complex/riskier for potential buyers putting in offers. But I wouldn&#039;t presume a property in a high-end area to necessarily be a short sale or a distress sale just because it&#039;s selling at a loss, since many of those families have high incomes and equity in other places. They may just be losing money on their investment, and that&#039;s it.</description>

		<description>Short sales aren&#039;t bank owned property either. 

If they sell at this price, they&#039;ll lose a ton of money when you consider the cost of buying and selling, plus the differential between the holding costs and renting an equivalent property. All for less than two years &quot;pride of ownership&quot;.</description>

		<description>Err, why would a price tag of $875K on a home that last sold for $880K mean a short sale? Conceivable if they bought it with absolutely nothing done, but pretty unlikely. Even if they only put 5% down, they owe a lot less than $875K. (Still, they&#039;re certainly not making anything, which isn&#039;t so hot for them.)</description>
