SHORT SALES ARE BACK ON THE RADAR | Short Sale vs. Foreclosure: What Georgia Homeowners MUST Know

HOMEOWNERS — PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS.
The housing market is shifting, and short sales are officially back on the radar.
Here are two numbers you should know:
Nationally: Short sales jumped 16% in early 2026.
Georgia: Foreclosure filings are up more than 50% year-over-year.
That doesn't mean every homeowner is in trouble. But it does mean that more homeowners, buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals need to understand how short sales work.
That's why I sat down with Chris Little of Parkway Law Group for an important conversation about short sales and foreclosures.

In this interview, we discuss:
- Short Sale vs. Foreclosure
- What happens when you owe more than your home is worth
- Second mortgages and HELOCs
- How the short-sale process works
- Credit considerations
- Legal and tax considerations
- What buyers need to know
- Why timing matters
DON'T WAIT UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE.
If you're struggling with your mortgage, worried about foreclosure, or simply wondering whether selling could be an option, watch this video before making a major decision.
And if you know someone who may be facing this situation, please share this post with them.
