You've probably got up to 6 months of non-payment before they will take legal action. They don't want to repossess as they are banks not house owners.
If it does get really bad and they are going to repossess and any equity with it, there are companies out there that can at least save you your equity. Some will look to buy at a huge discount. Others, like mine, will buy at market rate.
