You can however expect the insurance company to require you to sign a note, generally for around 10% of your mortgage balance. They also will not negotiate how it is reported on your credit. I learned through my own experience it's actually better to just let them foreclose if you have a loan with PMI. You avoid the deficiency judgment and it is basically the same on your credit.

Can you do Deed in lieu after foreclosure?

If you have PMI and your mortgage company accepts a shot sale does the PMI cover the difference?

I am working on one now where the buyer did not have PMI, however, the lender purchased PMI. Subsequently, the buyer has defaulted on the loan and has listed the property as a short sale. We secured an excellent offer which was submitted to the lender. The lender came back and said the deal was accepted by the investors but needed be sent to the PMI company for approval. This is the first time in the four month process that we found out there was PMI on the loan. The PMI company wanted the seller to sign a Promissory Note for the difference. The seller refused to sign it and the PMI company has trashed the sale because of it. We are now offering a Deed In Lieu Of Foreclosre so the investors can keep the buyer. Does the PMI company have to approve the Deed In Lieu? I wonder what the PMI company has to gain by forcing a foreclosure if the seller will not sign a Promissory Note to them? The sad part is that the offer is excellent, the property is vacant and will continue to decline in value as the landscaping dies and as it becomes vulnerable to vandalism and general neglect.

Where may you obtain a 'Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure'?

A deed in lieu of foreclosure is a deed to real property accepted by the lender from a borrower who is in default. It is accepted in order to avoid the expense of a foreclosure. If you are in default you would need to negotiate with your lender to see if they would accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure from you. There may be other consequences of a deed in lieu so you should seek the advice of an attorney if you are in default and contemplating your options. There may be a community service available for foreclosure counseling in your area.
