I, along with 4 other friends bought a single family home in Kissimmee, FL. in 2005. We paid $292K for the home. We owe $218K on the house currently. We would like to sell or somehow get rid of this house. The market in our area does not support a sale of $218K+. My problem is the mortgage is in my name while the deed to the house is being held in our corp. name (S Corp). What are my options? Could I go with a Deed in Lieu? Since this is an investment property I am sure loan modification will not help. If we try to go bankrupt, how will this effect me personally? I have no issues paying my own mortgage and have some money in the bank.
To top things off, one of the partners is going through a nasty divorce. The house is being used as a short term rental property. Thanks.

The best option is if the bank is ready for deed in lieu, then go for it
