Nope.

When you take a loan out for a house you secure it against the house.

You go through a formal process with the bank, which can take years and you hand the keys back to the bank.

Yup and your credit tanks for 7 years and you can't buy anything anyways. Turning your business into a corporation is the only way to avoid that. There's downfalls to that too...especially for businesses with only 1 guy working.

Fannie and Mac allow for a new mortgage after 3 years if you have a 10% down payment.

After 7 years it all disappears like it never happened.
