I need help with a short sale!!!!

I have found a short sale house in Shiloh il. The house appraised for about 155 they are asking 126. How do I get the best deal on this short sale? Should I offer less than 126? The house is really dirty and will not show well. It is not move In Ready but it basically just needs carpet and paint. How can I find out how much is still owed on the house. Should I offer what is owed? Are there any strategies for getting the best deal. Btw I am not flipping or selling this one. I'm gonna live in this house. I have never bought a short sale home before.
