VERY BAD IDEA.
Most reputable lenders are NOT doing this today, as it is a core reason for the mortgage foreclosure crisis. It means you hold NO equity, no ownership interest in the house you will be calling home. And those without tolerable down payments are considered LESS qualified and pay higher interest rates on both loans.
With an FHA loan you can win a loan with 3.5-5% down, and if you don't have that, you're NOT relatively ready to buy a home. With conventional loans you can get a loan near 10-20% down payment. Putting down 20% avoids the extra cost of PMI. When you put down less than 20%, you are paying interest, interest, interest, taxes, insurance, and a tiny bit of equity every allowance, and building equity VERY slowly.
Frequently the second mortgage (for the down payment) has a higher interest rate, too. During the first 10 years of your mortgage you are paying mostly interest, and by the time you settle off your home, will have compensated for it 10 times the cost, due to all the interest.

What happens in a few years? Does the 2nd trust work become due and payable (balloon payment) or does the interest rate increase?
If yes, then you would be sitting on a ticking time bomb. There is a good occasion that in 3-5 years you will not be able to refinance. That is what's scheduled today to people that purchased their home a few years ago. They believed that would be able to refinance because of the appreciation of their property. Instead, property values go down, they didn't have any equity (most owed more than the property was worth) and at hand wasn't any way possible for them to refi.
The result was, any they had a balloon payment that they couldn't settle up off or their month house payment skyrocketed to an amount they couldn't afford. Hence, they lost their homes to foreclosure.
it may be ok.
this was an alternative for borrowers not have 20% to avoid PMI. it is a wash because you pay a much greater interest rate. it would be same to just pay PMI.
this sounds close to a mortgage company who does not care about you. these are risky and enjoy a higher % of defaults. sounds approaching your mortgage company just wants the duty and does not much care about your situation after you close.
double mortgage way a lot higher payments, too copious of those kind of deals is what cause the real estate market collapse of times gone by few years- unless you are getting a house price well below what you qualify for (like no more than 1.5 times your annual combined salaries vs. the typical 2.5-3x your salary, normally allowed), forget it - you are asking for trouble, because utilities run like mad more in a hose vs an apt also (plus having to remuneration water,sewer,trash), plus depending on what your property taxes will run, is also added expense
