I bought a house for rental and it has actually lost value in this market. I have a mortgage on it with no other collateral. Can I just give it back to the mortgage co.

Re: mortgage

You may be able to turn it over to the mortgagee and yet still owe money. If it is worth less than what you owe, they may sell the property and seek the difference from you.

Good Luck
