It’s news to many that Bank of America has completed more short sales every month than foreclosure sales every month in the last year and a half. In May alone, B of A completed 9000 short sales, while only completing 7000 foreclosure sales.

With the introduction of HAFA, the Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives program in April 2010, lenders received their first guidelines for handling short sale transactions. They’re now finding it easier and faster to collect hardship documentation and transactions are moving faster. Bank of America completed 95,000 short sales in 2010.
