An Alaska buyer obtains a 'stated income' or 'no-documentation' loan. This type of loan:

AIs the most common type of mortgage for first-time homebuyers, which is the approach most often followed
BIs now largely prohibited for most residential transactions under the Dodd-Frank ability-to-repay rulesCorrect
CIs insured by the FHA
DRequires a minimum 40% down payment

Why Is now largely prohibited for most residential transactions under the Dodd-Frank ability-to-repay rules Is Correct

Answer B: Is now largely prohibited for most residential transactions under the Dodd-Frank ability-to-repay rules

No-documentation and stated income loans — where borrowers claimed income without verification — were common before the 2008 financial crisis and contributed to widespread defaults. The Dodd-Frank Act's ability-to-repay rule effectively eliminated most of these products for residential mortgages by requiring income verification.
