Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The plaintiff established a prima facie case by showing that the appellants executed the loan documents and defaulted on the mortgage ( see, Union State Bank v Blankfort, 222 AD2d 430; ICC Bridgeport Ltd. Partnership v Primrose Dev. Corp., 221 AD2d 417; Bennell Hanover Assocs. v Neilson, 215 AD2d 710, 711; European Am. Bank v Strab Constr. Corp., 196 AD2d 479, 480). It was then incumbent upon the appellants to demonstrate, by admissible evidence, the existence of a triable issue of fact relevant to the claim of default ( see, Union State Bank v Blankfort, supra; European Am. Bank v Strab Constr. Corp., supra; Bank Leumi Trust Co. v Rattet Leibman, 182 AD2d 541, 542; Lombardi v Pisari, 77 AD2d 646), and mere conclusions or unsubstantiated allegations are not sufficient ( see, State Bank v Fioravanti, 51 NY2d 638, 647). The appellants failed to raise any such issue, and summary judgment was, therefore, properly granted.
