Bulgarian man returns mortgaged house to the bank… in style!

A man from Lovech Oblast in Bulgaria returned his mortgaged house to the bank in the most novel manner. He spent his money to demolish his family home. The house was mortgaged and the family was unable to pay the mortgage. The mortgage was on the house but didn’t include the land on which the house was built, so the family decided to demolish the house and return it to the bank, loading the rubble onto a truck which was then brought to the head office of the bank.

Once there, the family pleaded with the bank and asked them not to take their home, but were told by the bank manager that the bank does not make exceptions. On hearing this, the man grinned and instructed his brother-in-law, the truck driver, to spread the rubble in front of the bank, which he did while also honking the truck’s horn at the bemused staff inside.

It serves them right these banks always wanting their money after all
Seriously the bank had to be nuts to have the house separated from
the land. They got their house back what more could they ask. Novel

I'm sure Loc's house and the land it sits on are not attached to the same mortgage.
