Answer:

B. a part of the purchase price paid in cash

Step-by-step explanation:

Down payment is the sum amount of money that you should pay for a property before the installment began. It's often considered as collateral for the home owner in case you can't continue paying the installment.

For example,

Let's say that the price of the house is $200,000 dollar and the owner require a 20% down payment.

This means that you need to prepare 20% $ 200,000 = $40,000 in cash at the beginning and pay the remaining $160,000 in installments,
