Getting rid of second liens?

[Tom Tram]

Hey everybody, been getting some leads from highly leveraged deals that are in the Lis Pendens phase. Basically, just short sale material. I wanted to ask the pros on here if it's possible to negotiate down amount owed with the second and third lien holders to make them go away without doing a short sale? Has anybody done this before, if so what creative solution did you execute for these situations?
