Foreclosure:  On any future application, a prospective borrower will have to answer YES to question C in section VII of the standard 1003 form that asks, "Have you had property foreclosed upon or given title or deed in lieu thereof in the last 7 years?"  This will affect future rates.

Short Sale:  There is no similar declaration or question regarding a short sale.

Hi Shayne, this is a great point.  My lender just said he saw the effects of a short sale on a recent credit report that he pulled and he said it had the same "credit impact" as a foreclosure and showed as a default as opposed to a paid as agreed which is what we shoot for in the negotiation.

Are you finding the same to be true?
