A Full Suite of Mortgages

  • Investment Portfolio: Residential mortgage loans and real estate-related securities held to generate interest income.
  • Agency MBS: Mortgage-backed securities backed by government agencies that provide liquid investment options.
  • Residential Origination: Mortgage lending through HomeXpress, which focuses on Non-Qualified Mortgage (Non-QM) loans for specialized borrowers.
  • Advisory Services: Asset management and advisory functions for institutional investors; generated $7 million in revenue during the second quarter of 2026.
