You ever heard of this thing called insurance? Doesn't the bank demand that
your house is insured against burning down (and various other stuff) before
giving you a mortgage?
Besides, AIUI once you are declared bankrupt you can start again afresh, so
assuming you didn't lose your job just rent somewhere until you can save up
enough deposit to buy a new house.
