i have a house that i refinanced 3 years ago it was appraised at $400k and refi loan was $340k i now need to move so we can live where my children go to school house is probably worth $240k what are my options in getting out since i will move no matter what for my children so what are all my options and i live in Arizona. i can also afford my mortgage so hardship will not work. i would like to short sale but if i have to i will just walk which i do not want to do.
Hi buffetaz,
Welcome to our forum.
As you say,i think if you selling this house you will loose $160K.Here i have one option for you, Give your house on rent. If you wish to short sale it you can do it, but you loose property & $160K.
Thanks & Regards.

first of all i would loose 100k if i short sale i would probably loose nothing since i would short sale and no deficienies in Arizona.
if you are loosing $ 100 k and by doing short sell you need to shell out the deficient amount.So in my opinion if you can afford that amount ,considering your situation,(as you want to move anyway) I will advice you to go for shortsell as it will not affect your credit score.
Short sale will drop your credit score by 50 points
