How will a short sale effect your credit score?

A short sale can have a negative impact on your credit score because it indicates that you were not able to repay the full amount of the mortgage. It may lower your credit score by several points, depending on your current score and credit history. However, the impact may be less severe than a foreclosure.

Is it possible to avoid short sale's negative impact on credit record by continuing short amount payments to lender?

No. The short sale and the credit situation that made it necessary will stay on your credit report for 7 years or the applicable statute of limitations. The debt is extinguished by the short sale, if properly executed, so you would not be entitled to mortgage interest deductions on your tax returns. You would be making gifts to the mortgage company and decreasing your ability to pay other debts. Get some good debt counselling, from a US Trustee-approved debt counseling agency or experienced attorney.

Should I short sale my house or wait for it to be auctioned?

This depends on your ultimate goal. A short sale is less detrimental to you credit, but will still likely keep you from buying another home for 2-3 years. Often times short sales become foreclosures because the homeowner stopped paying the mortgage loan payments and the short sale took too long. A foreclosure hits your credit harder, but may allow you to stay in the home for just as long or in some cases longer. Additionally, you can negotiate a "cash-for-keys" deal with the lender or new owner where you leave the property in good condition on a specified date in exchange for money for relocating costs.
