A short sale is a sale of real estate where the owner owes more to the bank (loan, mortgage) than the property is worth. Since 2007, homeowners whose bank or lender forgave unpaid mortgage debt after a short sale, principal reduction or foreclosure have not been required to count that money as income on their tax returns. Now property owners considering a short sale maybe hit with a hefty income-tax bill from the IRS as Congress has not yet reauthorized the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act which expired Dec. 31, 2013. The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/ According to data from the National Association of Realtors, short sales have plunged from roughly 10% to 12% of home transactions in recent years to between 4% and 5% this spring.
