Voluntary forclosure is when you call your lender and tell them you are voluntarily forclosing. This way the lender knows to sell the home before the bank "forcloses". I heard when the bank sells the home for a lower amount than the payoff, they can come after you to pay back the difference. By volunteering, you have open communication with the lender where the house can be put on the market asap rather than after the fact. You are off the hook but its stamped on your credit for a very long time.

Is a short sale better for your credit than a voluntary foreclosure?

I spoke with a lawyer...Voluntary foreclosure could be better because it would only be 1 hit on your credit instead of having to go 180 days past due. You can offer the deed to your house if the bank will take it to prevent the bank from placing a judgment for any amount uncollected at the sale.
