Shannon:  this is an excellent list.  It seems to cover just about everything I know of that a lender would accept as an acceptable hardship.  This is what differentiates a strategic default from a true short sale.  It is more and more the case that if a seller does NOT have some of the items on your list as part of the reasons for their default, that the lender will definitely come after their assets... which I believe they should, in the case of a "strategic default."
