Question

In recent years, mortgage lenders responded to the demand from home buyers who were unable to put 20 percent down on their purchase and were looking to avoid the private mortgage insurance (PMI) requirement that would typically accompany such a loan by developing a second mortgage that is created simultaneously with the first mortgage in an amount of ten percent of the value of the home. This enabled the borrower to obtain 90 percent financing while avoiding the additional cost of PMI. These loans are more commonly referred to as:
A. Reverse mortgages
B. Home equity loans
C. Piggyback mortgage loans
D. Subprime mortgage loans
