Addendums can override parts of the original contract and expand on others. Instead of scratching out and handwriting over certain parts of the contract, addendums are drafted and signed to prove both buyer and seller agree. This includes: Modifying the purchase price, closing date, and financing terms.
Updated March 06, 2025. A short sale addendum is intended for a seller of real estate that owes more money on the property than its worth.
While short sales require a lengthy lender approval process, they may be worth the wait for homebuyers and investors looking for a good deal on a property. With the seller and lender both motivated to mitigate their losses by selling the property, buyers may be able to negotiate a below-market purchase price.
Short selling is a strategy where traders profit from a decline in the price of an asset, often a stock. In a short sale, investors borrow shares of a stock they believe will fall in value, sell those shares on the open market, and later buy them back at a lower price to return to the lender.
An addendum is an additional document that is attached to your purchase contract. It plays an important role in clarifying and/or modifying an agreements initial terms and conditions.

If your state or local Association of REALTORS, or your broker, provides a short sale addendum, use it in any counteroffer you make. It is designed to protect the seller against liability to the buyer in the event the lender disapproves the short sale.
For example, the seller of a house may agree after the original sales contract has been written to include certain pieces of furniture for an additional specified sum. Mortgage terms or the closing date for the sale are often amended in real estate transactions, with the change noted in an addendum.
