Both options have serious consequences that can impact your financial future. However, in most cases, a foreclosure is typically worse than a short sale.<\/p>\n<p>A short sale occurs when a homeowner sells their property for less than the amount owed on the mortgage, with the lender agreeing to accept the proceeds as full satisfaction of the debt. On the other hand, foreclosure is the legal process by which a lender takes possession of a property when the homeowner fails to make mortgage payments.<\/p>\n<p>**So, what\u02bcs worse; a short sale or foreclosure?**<br \/>\nWhile both a short sale and foreclosure will negatively impact your credit score, a foreclosure is generally considered more damaging in the long run.
