Homeowners in this scenario now face difficult decisions… preserve paying the mortgage or just stroll away. Far more are more are just “walking away” and they refer to this as “strategic defaulting”.

A single of the techniques that most home owners do not even know about is settling or eliminating the 2nd mortgage.
