Well I would not dismiss the 'moral dilemma' quite so quickly.  You only as good as your word.

Also, the tax bill will cause you a bit of heart burn.  The 1099 you get for whatever the bank sells it for as a loss goes to you.  

So, lets say you make 100,000 a year and set aside witholding for same.   Then you get a 1099 for 150,000 to 200,000 as additional income.  

Now you have taxable income of $250,000 to $300,000.   You owe 'Uncle Sam the Kind' a crap load of cash.  Run it through your TurboTax.

What goes up goes down. What goes down goes up.  Just hang in there.

Don't walk away. A bank wouldn't add principle to your loan because your property appreciated, and so neither should you walk away.
