Wondering how it is going on that short sale? Did you get an atty experienced in short sales? Extremely important as the paper work, negotiations, inspections can be long and tedious.

You can always make a bid on the home. If that haven't accepted a contract it is an active listing, if they do come to an agreement with another party you can always submit a 'back up offer'.

Short sales are definitely trickier than a traditional sale & even more so if there are multiple liens, so the response time can take a while if paperwork has not already been submitted prior to the offer.

I do want to note that a bank will not entertain a home sale contingency for a short sale (not sure if you were planning on making that contingency as you stated that you will be listing your home in 10 days).

That depends, if none of the contracts have been accepted before you sell your house then you can still bid. Short sales can take anywhere from 2-6 months to be approved.
