You cannot ask for a share in the loan. If your friend defaults in repayment, your property will b proceeded for recovery. Better don’t be a surety and don’t mortgage your property. If you have money sufficient enough and you want to help him you take proper security from him. Otherwise don’ t get into trouble by mortgaging your property for him to get loan.
