They will have to foreclose against you and your wife since her name is on the deed ** also does the mortage company know her name is on the deed ??

You can not do a short sale unless the bank will agree to it, so you can contact the lien holder and ask them how much of a short sale they would allow. Many times you have to get a real estate offer and submit it and they will decide first by how long it is on the market ( some will not short sale till the property has been for sale for at least 3 months and some will not unless you are 2 months behind in payments, each lender has thier own short sale rules.

A foreclosure is never a good idea if you can do a sale of the property

if the house is forclosure, what is effect to my credit and other effect? how long it will effect my credit.
