GSE Market Profile: First Half 2011
With housing markets still in very fragile condition and a wavering economic recovery, policymakers in the federal government have made little effort to overhaul a mortgage finance system that remains heavily dependent on two entities, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
California remains the biggest source of home mortgages for Fannie and Freddie, accounting for 22 percent of their business during the first half of 2011. Fannie captured 64 percent of the state’s GSE business, and 63 percent of GSE mortgage sales nationwide. California produced 31 percent of the ARMs securitized by Fannie and Freddie in 2011.
Wells Fargo produced $107 billion of Fannie and Freddie MBS during the first six months of the year. That was up 2 percent, somewhat slower than the 5 percent overall growth in the GSE market compared to the same period in 2010. A number of other competitors – Chase Home Finance, GMAC/Ally, U.S. Bank and PHH Mortgage – all posted substantially bigger gains.

Most pools are backed by loans from a single seller, and in the case of the major lenders that includes mortgages acquired from correspondents and mortgage brokers.
