Profile
Runs an internally managed mortgage REIT built around an Investment Portfolio and a Residential Origination segment. Income is shaped by residential loans, Agency and Non-Agency mortgage securities, Palisades advisory activity, and HomeXpress mortgage production in the US.
Operates as an internally managed mortgage REIT focused on residential real estate credit. The Investment Portfolio segment holds residential loans, Agency MBS, Non-Agency RMBS, MSR financing interests and related assets, while Palisades adds advisory and investment-management activity.
Adds origination through HomeXpress, which produces consumer non-QM, investor business-purpose, other non-Agency and Agency mortgage loans. The platform is concentrated in the US, with HomeXpress active across most states and the parent headquartered in New York.
Execution depends on sourcing mortgage assets on acceptable terms, financing them with leverage, managing hedges and securitizations, and integrating advisory/origination teams. Competitors include mortgage REITs, banks, mortgage lenders, investment managers and private funds.
