Interest rates go up, mortgage payments get too high, business's are hit so they make cut backs peoples wages are cut or they get laid off..

The housing market is flooded with everyone trying to sell to ease the debt house prices fall, so people end up in negative equity,(which is your house is worth less than your mortgage)

The standard newspaper definition of a recession is a decline in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for two or more consecutive quarters.
For a region, the GDP is "the market value of all the goods and services producted by labour and property located in" the region, usually a country. It equals GNP minus the net inflow of labour and property incomes from abroad.
So when the value of goods and services fall for two consecutive periods of 3 months then we are technically in a recession. The GDP figures are produced by the Office for National Statistics and are widely published in Newspaper and TV so you will find them there.

Often, combinations of population level, industrial output, retail output along with management of the economy are the cause.
Invariably , effects at national level are symptomatic of global recession
