Right now, distressed sellers should choose a Short Sale over foreclosure. Given that South Carolina is a recourse state, distressed sellers or property owners that are under water with their mortgage should consider taking action now. In Florida, Wall Street Journal reports that some banks are going after sellers that may have had their homes, condos or second homes foreclosed upon. In fact, there are now investors buying up these deficiency judgements.
