A Standard listing is where a seller has equity in the property and is selling the home without requiring a bank or asset manager to approve it.

When negotiating with a standard listing, typically the response times are much faster and the paperwork does not require a large amount of addendums. Standard sells were common when the market was rising, but current conditions have left most home sellers with little to no equity thus requiring them to short sale.

A short sale is where someone is needing to sell their home due to hardship.

Hardship can be a change in income due to job loss or hours cut back, relocation, death or injury, etc... Banks are working with sellers. The final result in a bank no accepting a short sale is foreclosure which can cost the bank thousands more than approving a short sale.
