It all has to do with reserves. If the borrower's equity is less than 20%, then the bank must put up more money in their reserves due to the risk factor. I did a lot of those appraisals in the past to determine how much equity the borrower had in their property. It also comes up when portfolios of loans are sold. Those numbers can make or break the sale. Usually, the bank would ask the borrower to bring in the difference. The 1990s were a sea of bad loans and loan calls.Yup "Due for No Reason" clauses (which give lenders the ability to call a loan due when the collateral is insufficient to cover the loan balance) got popular after the 2008 melt-down, but I don't see too many loans with them these days. We do some large FNMA/FMAC commercial loans ($10M+), and haven't seen this clause in many years...
I wouldn't be surprised if some portfolio lenders were still using them, but they are pretty uncommon.
