The Weisels avoided the extra cost of private mortgage insurance by getting a so-called 80/20 loan two different loans that equal 100 percent financing. That's insane. And interest only, to boot. Doubly insane.

It is also frighteningly common.

Very few people have the cash on hand to make a large down payment to avoid private mortgage insurance. So to avoid that on their mortgage, they take out a piggyback one. As long as the times are good, its mangeable. Its when things go south that there's big trouble on the horizon.

Getting an 80/20 to avoid PMI is not insane. Paying PMI is insane.
Interest only is at least idiotic, if not insane.
