        "text": "The potential costs in a short sale typically include standard real estate closing costs such as title insurance, transfer taxes, and escrow fees. Often, lenders may agree to cover some or all of these costs for the seller as part of the short sale approval. This is a practical tradeoff where the lender absorbs costs to avoid foreclosure expenses. There are generally no upfront fees for the seller to engage a real estate agent for a short sale, as the commission is paid by the lender from the sale proceeds. Kelby Contreras - Realty ONE Group Evolution prioritizes transparency regarding all potential expenses.",
