In the short sales we have been involved with, usually the homeowner is just the catalyst to the convo with the bank. Usually in a short sale the homeowner is not going to make a dime and the bank just wants the property off their books. Once you get the words short sale into the banks ears usually the convo from that point on is between yourself and the bank, no more middlemen.
If you can get the homeowner to tell you who their bank is, you could possibly just go direct from there, or you might even do a lookup in the local tax registry and see who has the mortgage lien on the house as well.
