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:
“What if we fail to stop the erosion of cities by automobiles?... In that case America will hardly need to ponder a mystery that has troubled men for millennia: What is the purpose of life? For us, the answer will be clear, established and for all practical purposes indisputable: The purpose of life is to produce and consume automobiles.”
—Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
“Some of my friends spoke as if I was coming to the woods on purpose to freeze myself.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The United States is the only great nation whose government is operated without a budget. The fact is to be the more striking when it is considered that budgets and budget procedures are the outgrowth of democratic doctrines and have an important part in developing the modern constitutional rights.... The constitutional purpose of a budget is to make government responsive to public opinion and responsible for its acts.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
