b. No residential mortgage lender or residential mortgage broker shall request that a borrower incorporate in connection with a secondary mortgage loan, or aid or abet a scheme to incorporate a borrower.
c. No residential mortgage lender shall make a secondary mortgage loan which has been referred by a retail seller, who, in connection with that referral, has required the borrower to purchase personal property or services, or has indicated that the purchase is necessary as a condition precedent for the loan.
d. No residential mortgage lender or residential mortgage broker shall require or accept from a borrower any collateral or security for a secondary mortgage loan other than a mortgage, indenture or any other similar instrument or document which creates a lien upon any real property or an interest in real property including, but not limited to, shares of stock in a cooperative corporation.
