How do I sell property with a charged off loan?

Bank said they were going to foreclose. Instead they charged off the loan, property destroyed by vandals, I can not afford to fix.

How do I sell, get rid of, give away etc. the property without passing on the lien on the property. The property is not worth the amount of the lien. No where close.

    Record a "deed in lieu of foreclosure" in favor of the lender. The bank doesn't have to accept it, but it might force them to start the foreclosure.

    The only way to eliminate the lien is to pay it.
