EverBank Financial is preparing to issue a $303.30 million non-agency jumbo mortgage-backed security, according to a presale report issued by DBRS this week. The MBS has similar characteristics to the $307 million jumbo security EverBank issued in March. DBRS cited strong reps and warrants on the deal, including automatic reviews for seriously delinquent loans, mandatory arbitration and no sunset provisions. However, the rating service said EverBank’s limited securitization history and ...
Since 2008, big banks have largely held their non-agency jumbo originations in portfolio, seeing better execution than non-agency MBS issuance, but all that could be changing.
JPMorgan Chase is set to issue a unique jumbo MBS, its second of the year, that will include originations from 20 different lenders that far outweigh the company’s contributions to the deal. Another bank, EverBank, this week took steps to issue its second jumbo deal of 2013 as well. Since 2008, big banks have largely held their non-agency jumbo originations in portfolio, seeing better execution than non-agency MBS issuance. However, strong demand from non-agency MBS investors and a desire to shrink mortgage exposure has prompted Chase to resume issuing jumbo MBS. Chase declined...
Non-agency MBS execution for certain high-quality mortgages is competitive with agency MBS execution, according to industry analysts. A slight increase in the guaranty fees charged by the government-sponsored enterprises would make non-agency securitization even more attractive, though the incentive for banks to hold non-agency originations in portfolio remains strong. Non-agency MBS execution is currently competitive with agency MBS execution for purchase mortgages with loan-to-value ratios below 70 percent and credit scores above 740, according to analysts at Barclays Capital. “For the cleanest collateral, non-agency execution could be...
According to industry sources, the FHA recently sent out administrative letters to a handful of residential lenders. Meanwhile, yet another new subprime originator has emerged.
Origination trends for non-agency jumbo mortgages were stronger than total mortgage originations in the first quarter of 2013, according to a new ranking by affiliated publication Inside Mortgage Finance. Lenders increasingly see jumbos as an attractive product and a number of smaller players are entering the market or growing their originations. An estimated $54.0 billion in non-agency jumbos were originated in the first quarter of 2013, down 1.8 percent from the previous quarter ... [Includes one data chart]
The new non-agency jumbo mortgage-backed security from JPMorgan Chase has been described as both encouraging and puzzling by non-agency participants. The $442.54 million non-agency MBS shows that Chase thinks the non-agency securities market – largely the domain of nonbanks since 2010 – is strong enough for the bank to issue its second jumbo security this year. Non-agency MBS participants have welcomed the competition, noting that activity from a big bank such as Chase could prompt greater ...
An increase of 10 basis points in the guaranty fees charged by the government-sponsored enterprises would make pricing for agency execution comparable to pricing for non-agency mortgage-backed security issuance, according to industry analysts. Agency g-fees averaged about 50 bps at the end of 2012, with plans for further increases this year. “The economics of non-agency securitization are much closer to GSE securitizations today than they were two years ago,” according to analysts at Barclays Capital ...
Stonegate Mortgage has plans to compete with banks for non-agency jumbo originations and warehouse lending. The company announced recently that it raised $115 million in a private offering of its stock, with plans for the proceeds largely tied to jumbos. “We intend to grow our originations and servicing portfolio by expanding to all 48 contiguous states by year-end,” said Jim Cutillo, Stonegate’s CEO. “We also recently launched a non-agency jumbo loan program and an integrated warehouse ...
