| Is there any way an investor can avoid foreclosure if you have a first mortgage of $60K, a second of $10K, and an appraised value of $78K in a weak market and unable to qualify a good renter? |

There are two real good ways, continue to make the payments or sell... with 6% agent fees and $1k in seller closing costs there should be enough equity to sell and not have to bring money to the table. _________________ Shane Milne

It does look like there is enough equity to break even when you sell this investment property. I would still be on the look out for a good renter, you never know when one might turn up. _________________ Irene

Given your reference to foreclosure, I must assume that you aren't able to keep up with the payments (or find a renter that will allow for a positive cash flow).
Your only options are to sell it and try to breakeven or lease option it to a renter cum buyer to get from under it.
Good luck!
