Well, actually... You're renting the money off the bank. Oh, and if you don't keep up repayments, the bank can make the house theirs

Oh i thought thats why they had the deeds, cos it was legally theirs till you paid the mortgage off.

cookstar - until paid off in full, nothing is 'yours' even if you have use of it or posess it.

If you borrow money to buy something, then it becomes your property when the last penny is paid off - this is why it can be a hassle for people trying to sell cars that still have outstanding finance on them, because the finance company still own a percentage of the car.

Anyone you borrow money from ( car, credit card, mortgage, overdraft etc... ) can technically recall the loan at any time, and if you cant afford to pay whats left, then they can take back whatever you bought.
