A NC 'cooperative apartment' (co-op) financing differs from condo financing in that the buyer:

AObtains a regular mortgage on the unit
BObtains a 'share loan' (personal property loan) secured by their shares in the cooperative corporationCorrect
CPays in full without financing
DObtains financing from the co-op directly, which is broadly consistent with standard practice statewide

Why Obtains a 'share loan' (personal property loan) secured by their shares in the cooperative corporation Is Correct

Answer B: Obtains a 'share loan' (personal property loan) secured by their shares in the cooperative corporation

Co-op buyers receive a share loan (secured by cooperative stock and the proprietary lease) rather than a traditional real property mortgage, since they own shares rather than real estate.
