What is a short sale?

An MLS can mark a listing as a short sale, or as a potential or possible short sale. In the RESO Data Dictionary, a short sale “may require bank approval,” so an accepted offer may need the lender’s approval before the sale can close. For a specific home, ask its listing agent whether the sale needs that approval and whether it has been given.

What does an auction listing mean?

An MLS can mark a listing as an auction or as sold under auction terms. MLS rules differ on the price an auction listing shows: depending on the MLS, it can be a starting or minimum bid, a reserve price, or an assessed, tax or market value, so it may not be what the home sells for. For a specific home, read the auction’s terms and ask its listing agent how bidding works before you bid.

Q: What does “notice of default” mean on a listing?

An MLS can mark a listing with a notice of default. In the RESO Data Dictionary, this status means “there is a notice of default on the listed property.” RESO defines this field as describing “the type of sale … at the time of listing,” and a listing’s status can change after that. For a specific home, ask its listing agent what the notice means for the sale and where the sale stands.
