    Obviously, defaulting on mortgages is a thing.

    In USA. As I explained in Europe it’s not a thing. Own contribution is a thing in USA and Europe. Therefore, banks don’t require own contribution because of defaults. Q.E.D.

      What do you call it in Europe when someone stops making repayments on a loan ?

      Obviously, that’s a thing.

        I meant that intentionally defaulting on a mortgage when the property loses value and not paying the debt is not a thing. That’s what we were talking about.

                Not in Europe.
