We are probably going to file a chapter 7 soon. Our 1st mortgage holder (Citimortgage) filed an NOD in early July. The balance with arrears (we have been playing with them over a loan mod for over a year) is about $225k. The value of the house is around $300k, but we have a 2nd (also from Citi) for $170k.
We would be happy to stay here without payments (last pmts were in June) for as long as possible. Is it possible/would it be beneficial for us to try and do a short sale after the BK? We have heard that this can often take 4 to 6 months to complete.
