Hi. Good site.
Better to short sell house or forclose before filing ch. 7?
I plan on filing ch. 7 in three months. I'm trying to sell my primary residence. The lender has agreed to a short sale, provided they reserve the right to collect on the unpaid HELOC balance. Will this get wiped out when I file ch.7? My attorney said I could just let it foreclose. That sounds worse. Is it?

Debt consolidation
I am considering debt consolidation. It would lower my monthly bills by a little and would help me out now. Problem is, the interest rate is higher than all of my current debts/loan rates, so in the long run I would be paying more, but soon I will be making significantly more and would probably be able to pay the loan off quicker. It would be about 20k over 4-5 years at 12%, where as I would probably be able to pay it off over 3-4 years. Plus, paying one bill a month is easier to budget and pay,...
