The IRS is very cooperative with removing the liens from the property in a short sale. Of course, the judgment remains against the seller, but the title gets cleared.

The sellers and the agents are crazy if they think they can ask less and then take the 'extra' money for themselves.  it also sounds like they are lowering the price to get people hooked  (happened to me).

I'd hire myself an agent who knows what the heck is going on and see what they say about this situation if I really loved the house.
