your credit score drops down and that's a bad thing on your report also. I guess market is slow that's why your home value is reduced, but did you get help from real estate agent or a realtor?

Your score will go down because of a deed in lieu Donna.
Did you try and rent it out? if it would be possible then you can continue the mortgage until you get good price for the house.

Welcome Donna,
Lenders do not wish to accept a deed-in-lieu often because it does not give them the right to demand the deficiency amount, if the home is sold at a price lower than the outstanding debt on it. However, it does affect one's credit.

Both foreclosure and dil bring your score down. You need to avoid both if possible. Try to sell the house if possible then only your credit will not get affected. Otherwise I cannot see how you would be able to save your score from being affected.
