If there is sufficient equity to cover the first at foreclosure auction, then of course the 1st won't consider a short....it would be bad business to do so.

Instead, concentrate on scoring a deal with the second.
Perhaps, negotiating a short with them and/or a conversion to unsecured debt on a remaining balance might be an option worthy of pursuit.

The key is to orchestrate a deal that will satisfy the lender's business sense and not leave your rear exposed in the process.
