Yes, it's true. I was very surprised to learn on my recent FHA/HUD Preforeclosure Sale (short sale) that the homeowner can receive up to $1000 to close a short sale on their property rather than letting it go through foreclosure. The lenders are very open to doing a short sale rather than a foreclosure. Better for all involved.

I have had a few lenders give money to the seller, but not all. Lately, I have had fewer lenders give the seller money during a short sale.

Yes, FHA/HUD will also pay up to 1% toward's the buyers closing costs if the new buyers do an FHA loan.
