Banks may make more (up to 30% more) on short sales than foreclosures. http://homebuying.about.com/od/shortsale/f/Banks-Foreclosure-Short-Sale.htm

Everybody but the seller profits from a short sale – even the bank that saves  the costs of foreclosure wins.  But let’s not forget the seller who wins by avoiding foreclosure and until 12-31-13, doesn’t pay Federal Income Taxes on the debt forgiven.  Source: http://homebuying.about.com/od/4closureshortsales/qt/060807SellShort.htm
