Antichresis
Antichresis, under civil law and Roman law, is a contract whereby a debtor pledges (i.e., conveys possession of but not title to) real property to a creditor, allowing the use and occupation of the pledged property, in lieu of interest on the loan. Historically, antichresis was used in Ancient Mesopotamia ( Akkad, Assyria, Babylonia) and by the Greeks and the Romans and it is still widely used in Bolivia. After the Western Church banned interest loans, it became a favored method of securing loans in early medieval society and was known in England as the gage of land ( OFr ''gage'', MLG ''sate'', Germ ''Satzung''). There were two variants: (1) the living gage (OFr ''vif gage'', Germ ''Zinssatzung''), under which the income and profits coming from the estate went towards reducing the loan's principal; and (2) the dead gage (OFr ''mort gage'', MLG ''dotsate'', Germ ''Totsatzung''), under which the income and profits were taken only as interest. The latter form underlies the m ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Real Estate Bubble
A real-estate bubble or property bubble (or housing bubble for Residential area, residential markets) is a type of economic bubble that occurs periodically in local or global real estate markets, and it typically follows a land boom or reduced interest rates. A land boom is a rapid increase in the market price of real property, such as housing, until they reach unsustainable levels and then decline. This period, during the run-up to the crash, is also known as froth. The questions of whether real estate bubbles can be identified and prevented, and whether they have broader macroeconomic significance, are answered differently by schools of economic thought, as detailed below. Bubbles in housing markets are more critical than stock market bubbles. Historically, Equity (finance), equity price busts occur on average every 13 years, last for 2.5 years, and result in about a 4 percent loss in Gross domestic product, GDP.

Mortgages
A mortgage loan or simply mortgage (), in civil law jurisdictions known also as a hypothec loan, is a loan used either by purchasers of real property to raise funds to buy real estate, or by existing property owners to raise funds for any purpose while putting a lien on the property being mortgaged. The loan is " secured" on the borrower's property through a process known as mortgage origination. This means that a legal mechanism is put into place which allows the lender to take possession and sell the secured property (" foreclosure" or " repossession") to pay off the loan in the event the borrower defaults on the loan or otherwise fails to abide by its terms. The word ''mortgage'' is derived from a Law French term used in Britain in the Middle Ages meaning "death pledge" and refers to the pledge ending (dying) when either the obligation is fulfilled or the property is taken through foreclosure. A mortgage can also be described as "a borrower giving consideration in the fo ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
