It's not marked as a short sale, but under Listing Information, it says, "Subject to Court/Lender Approval".

 

Can you buy this house with Redfin?

Could be.  Could be a property that had an owner die or a divorce in the process.

This is most definitely a Short Sale.  The current owner paid $679K for it back in Septemer 2007.  Feel free to email for help in submitting an offer.

SDRE - Can you tell what in the listing says short sale?  I'm curious what I missed that meant it was a short sale.  Thanks.

The listing stated "any commission adjustment to be split 50/50 between agents" and referenced needing lender approval.

Wow, not a single response from Redfin staff.

 

Redfin has a nice concept, kind of like the first electric cars build in the late 19th century. I don't feel that Redfin will ever be able to give a buyer the quick response that a good realtor will give. Then again, a good realtor is a rarity in itself.

Kudos!

Hi Fencesitter,

We're sorry for not responding sooner but at this time Redfin doesn't help with short sale purchases.

We need to do a better job monitoring the forums for questions but I do recommend that if you are looking for a fast response to a question the best way to engage us is to email one of our agents (firstname.lastname@redfin.com) or to call us at 877-973-3346.
