In most cases the bank would prefer you kept the house and continued to make payments on the mortgage (as they will make significantly more as a result of the interest than if they are forced to foreclose on the property). As a result, while it is always possible the CIBC would be willing to do this, it would very much surprise me.

As for equity in your house, I am not in a position where I have sufficient information to determine this, but all you need to do is take the current market value of the house and subtract the existing balance on the mortgage, the difference is the equity.
