这就是我迷惑的地方,
如果我的liability只是我的book value里面的remaining principal的话,而银行只需 ...
But you have forgotten that once you repay, they can use the money to lend to some one else.
The main different between the system here and loan system is that the house loan in US is non-recourse. It means the house loan in US is only confined to the house itself. If you can't repay the loan, you just have to give the house key to the bank and you can walk away with no problem. The bank can't do anything to you. this modal is actually much more risky for the banks (that's why so many banks are in trouble when the house price in US falls so much).
But in Australia the borrower is personally liable for the full loan amount. If the house value falls so much that it is not enough to cover the loan after you sold the property, then the bank can sue you and get your other assets (cars, another house, your saving accounts etc.) to cover their loss. |
