June 19, 2015
Freddie Mac announced its first non-performing loan auction that primarily caters to smaller investors was sold last week to Corona Asset Management XII, LLC. Freddie marketed the Extended Timeline Pool Offering of 157 deeply delinquent NPLs in April and it sold on June 3.The EXPO gives smaller investors who may need more time to secure funds for bidding a longer timeframe to do so.Having smaller pool sizes and a longer marketing timeframe differentiates the EXPO initiative from Freddie’s standard pool auctions. The loans were all based in Miami-Dade County, FL, and have an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $31 million. Freddie said the loans had been delinquent for close to four years on average.
