When the bonded-out defendant fails to appear, the bond (whether in cash or property) is forfeited to the court, unless and until the defendant returns, or is apprehended. That's why bail bondsmen hire bounty hunters - to track down and return the absconder because the bailbondsman's money is being held by the court.

If this is not enough a judgement will be made against you and any money you receive in the future will be confiscated until the debt is settled. This will follow you on your credit report as well. In some jurisdictions you will be jailed yourself.
