Ultimately the impact of a foreclosure to your credit rating and ability to borrow in the future is reason to choose the short sale over the foreclosure. Lenders will look more favorably upon a potential borrower that tried to work with the bank (via short sale) opposed to one who just walked away.
The short sale process, when handled properly, can even result in a favorable narrative on your credit report, which will minimize the impact to your score. When looking for a short sale specialist, I suggest you make sure that agent has a trained mitigator that will negotiate with the bank on your behalf. Also, the agent you choose should have experience in the short sale market.
Hope this helps! If you need more information or have other questions, just ask.

Is there any way to get out of a mortgage without foreclosing or selling?
Most refinances are done to "get out" of a mortage and get a better deal. If this is not an option due to lack of equity, or credit; it is now more possible than ever before to actually renegotiate with your current lender. Lenders are currently acquiring many more properties than they want to hold due to foreclosures. This provides a huge incentive to make it possible for their current customers to be able to afford their mortgage payment and not have to sell or face foreclosure. == == Yes, pay the mortgage in full. Another option is to deliver the deed (the rights) to the house "in lieu of" (instead of) foreclosure. The lender would have to agree to this provision. In this instance, the consumer is handling over the property and all his equity in exchange for the debt being cancelled. Obviously, a mortgage lender would only consider such an option if it was in their best interests. Deed in lieu of foreclosure is considered a derogatory credit notation, although not as bad as foreclosure itself, and will remain on a consumers' credit report for 7 years. Just be aware that if a deed-in-lieu is approved, that the lender does report it to the IRS as a 'forgiven debt' so there are tax consequences. I believe that it�s considered income to you, and therefore you have to pay taxes on it. The advantage to the mortgagor of a DIL vs a foreclosure is that it does look somewhat better on your credit report, and you don't have to worry about the lender seeking a deficiency judgment against you in the event that the property resells for less than the mortgage amount. You should be aware that I'm not an attorney, but I did work in mortgage servicing for a numbers of years.
