CMG Mortgage of San Ramon, Calif., is re-launching a once popular first lien home equity product - and is even accepting applications from third-party loan brokers. The California-based non-depository stopped offering its 'Home Ownership Accelerator' a year ago when its secondary market investor -- GMAC Bank and its affiliates -- faced liquidity problems and had to pull the plug on the loan. At the time CMG was funding about $100 million a month in HOAs. It has found a new HOA investor - Ameriprise Bank of Minneapolis. (For more details see the Monday edition of National Mortgage News.)
