However, one's account status with the lender does appear, which may impact the homeowner's credit score. After the sale, a lender may report a short sale as:
1. Paid in full - Paid as agreed
2. Paid - Settled
3. Paid - Unrated
4. Paid - Less then owed
How the lender reports the closed account is negotiable.
