Yet, Maui short sales are becoming one of the easiest ways to build equity and certainly make for some great investment opportunities. Simply put, a short sale is when a lender accepts less than the remaining balance owed on a property. In many cases, Maui short sales become available because a lender feels that selling the property at a loss is beneficial to chasing a borrower.
