What do you mean by what happens?

This means the contract is void.
You will be getting the money back but will have to give the house to the bank.

You would have at least have signed a mortgage deed to create the security over your property. Might help if you explained to us why you're asking.0

How much do you owe and what is your house worth?0

What was your plan when you took out the mortgage?
You could overpay/remortgage?
A non signed contract will not get you out of your responsibilities, you were an adult when you took out the mortgage.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

i didnt sign my application either. Although I signed the offer letter and the other key documents to allow the property transfer to take place.Because i had a interest only mortgage and dont have any thing in place to pay off the mortgage at the end of the term i told them this when i took out the mortgage i only have 5 yrs left and im worried sick
And why do you think the offer letter or application are important in this?
Surely you are not silly enough to think you are going to get away with anything? The courts put paid to that daft idea some years ago when the scam claims companies were telling people they would get their debts wiped out.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).

I'm pretty sure that 1 of 3 things will happen -
1. You will pay off mortgage
2. You will re- mortgage.
3. You will sell property to pay off mortgage.
