None, other than it not becoming a part of the person's credit history. A deed gives the persons named the legal right to ownership. A mortgage obligates the signers for repayment of the loan amount.

If your name is on the mortgage but not the deed do you own the property?

No. In order to be the owner of real property you must be named as grantee on the deed. If your name is on the mortgage but not on the deed you have obligated yourself to pay for real property you do not own. If the primary borrower defaults the lender will go after you for full payment of the mortgage yet you do not own the property.
