Re: Foreclosure
What is your question?
If the lender will approve a short sale, it behooves you to sell, to salvage what is left of your credit, so long as the lender agrees not to come after you for the deficiency. If they won't agree, then a nonjudicial foreclosure would prevent to lender from getting any deficiency, although your credit will be shot.
