Who we work with

Whether you are a non-bank lender, credit union, CDFI, CDC, loan broker, or real-estate broker, our products bring real value to your business by offering rates and terms to satisfy your customer’s needs and win deals

How it works

Direct funding

Our funding partner directly funds the loan and thus the selling lender does not have to use its own capital. This transactional approach with our funding partners allows the selling lender to maintain a broad client relationship.

Purchase

Selling lender books the first mortgage loan on its balance sheet, then sells it to the funding partner.
