Someone did a presentation on this in law school, referencing Canon law and such. Probably should have paid closer attention because if they want to hate on usury this much someone pass me the sign in sheet for Islam.

If so, how does it work?
After you pay the principal off, you own the house.
If you stop making payments, the bank still owns the house and you get nothing back from your payments.
