It has been on the market for 2 years and NO offers at bare minimum to avoid owing money at closing.

I have a 2nd mtg in form of Line of Credit. Will the deed in Lieu also cancel the 2nd?

Hi bsegard!
Welcome to forums!
Yes, you can try for a deed in lieu foreclosure for the rented property. But as you have mentioned that you are still current on payments, I don't think the lender will accept your offer. Normally lenders agree to a deed in lieu foreclosure only when you are 2-3 months late on payments.
Though you do a deed in lieu foreclosure on the first, you will still be liable for paying the 2nd mortgage. A deed in lieu will not cancel your 2nd mortgage.
Feel free to ask if you have further queries.
