[quote=urbanrealtor][quote=jpinpb]I’ve seen a few like that. Here’s one example I just spotted. 3656 Yosemite is listed for $779,995. It last sold 12/19/2006 for $790k. Doesn’t indicate it is a short sale. It is possible they actually have been making payments for 3 years and reduced their balance a little, minus whatever they put down, if anything (doubt it). I don’t know. Maybe it’ll end up later on my NODs list.[/quote]

Yup short sale.
Bear in mind that it is required to mention that it is a short on the MLS (usually in private remarks).
Public sites do not show the private remarks.[/quote]

If you look on Redfin, you can typically tell if it is a short sale or not, as is the case with Yosemite.
