I'm actually curious how foreign banks can foreclose on a delinquent loan. Will Russian law allow for this?

I doubt the mortgage loans are being made by foreign banks. They are from Russian banks but just denominated in a foreign currency.

I just realized I didn't include a link for the quote I provided in the OP. Here it is:

Ah, that makes more sense then.

That is, it makes sense that the banks are Russian, not that one would borrow such a large sum and not hedge the currency risk. TANSTAAFL.

Is a 10 percent mortgage rate normal over there?

I'm sure soon we will hear stories about how these borrowers didn't understand what they were signing, etc.
