Warehouse Line of Credit - Purpose

Purpose

Reasons for using a warehouse line of credit include:

  • Permanent Funding: Mortgage lender does not have to draw deposits - the line of credit provides permanent funding for the life of all loans in the program.
  • Less Risk: No margin calls - once the asset is funded, there is no additional mark-to-market and posting of collateral.
  • Unlimited Loan Volume: Warehouse line of credit program can fund an unlimited loan volume. This enables specialty lenders to enlarge their portfolios for maximum interest income and eliminates the need to manage multiple sources of capital.

In addition, in this way the warehouse credit institution can manage an exposure to mortgage loans market without building a branch network of its own.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:

    Politics should share one purpose with religion: the steady emancipation of the individual through the education of his passions.
    George F. Will (b. 1941)

    To me the sole hope of human salvation lies in teaching Man to regard himself as an experiment in the realization of God, to regard his hands as God’s hand, his brain as God’s brain, his purpose as God’s purpose. He must regard God as a helpless Longing, which longed him into existence by its desperate need for an executive organ.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    the Omnibus
    Had no real purpose till it got to us.
    Never believe it.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
