Will foreclosure keep you from buying a house in the future?

[Edit]

Answer

It's better to sign the house back to the financer to save them the trouble of going through foreclosure, just for their convenience. If you keep your credit clean for a few (3 or more) years, you should be able to purchase a house, but be prepared to come up with a 20% down-payment and pay higher interest than others.
