Welcome cisco,

As you're unemployed, it's better for you to apply for a deed in lieu of foreclosure rather than a short sale. In a deed in lieu of foreclosure, you won't be liable for paying the balance dues resulting from the sale of the property. In case of short sale, you will be liable for paying the balance dues resulting from the sale of the property. However, your credit scores will be badly affected in a deed in lieu of foreclosure. It'll be lowered by 250 points.
