Perhaps it is different in your area but no 1st I know would go for that. They would dictate what the 2nd could get and it wouldn't be 50%.

National averages that I have seen are in the 5-10% range. If they were lucky, 20%.

Yes, they can always say "no" and then take the chance of losing all.

In a recent meeting with a lender short sale mitigator she said that if they hold the 1st the average payoff to the 2nd is a flat $1,000. And that they do it all the time.

FWIW
