I know that banks look at your assets when negotiating short sales, but are retirement accounts included. Is there a way to hide that money or any money? I am drowning under my mortgage, but I don't want foreclosure and bankruptsy. I owe 556,000 combined
No, it can't be touched. However, they can go after a deficiency judgement against you if they feel that you have the funds. Plus, I don't think they can find out about your 401k. It's not disclosed on any public records nor is it in your credit.

Do I still have to keep home insurance on a vacant home if I'm negotiating a short sale or can I cancel it?

I'm negotiating a short sale with the bank. Do I still have to keep home insurance on my house (payment included in the mortgage) or can I cancel my insurance and get reimbursed for the remaining premium. Won't the bank have to carry the insurance if

Dealing with second and third mortgages on one property
18.05.12
Q. I have a second and third mortgage on my house. Can the lenders of my second and third mortgage foreclose on my house even if I make all my payments to my first mortgage lender in timely manner? Is there any way that I can short-sell my house?
Your letter reminds us of the go-go years of real estate, where property values were rising so fast that many homeowners took out several home equity lines of credit — and home equity lenders happily agreed to sit behind the primary, secondary and even tertiary lender.
