Answer:

$34,050

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of house = $125,000

Maximum Loan = 85% of LTV

First mortgage = $63,000

Second mortgage = $5,000

Closing cost = $4,200

Now,

The maximum loan amount Robby qualifies

= 85% of  $125,000

= 0.85 × $125,000

= $106,250

Thus,

Cash available

= Maximum loan amount - First mortgage - Second mortgage - Closing cost

= $106,250 - $63,000 - $5,000 - $4,200

= $34,050
