Walter Investment Management Corp. Announces Completion Of First Delinquency Flow Program
TAMPA, Fla., June 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Walter Investment Management Corp. (NYSE MKT: WAC) ("Walter Investment" or the "Company") today announced that its Green Tree subsidiary has entered into a definitive agreement for its first delinquency flow program. The transaction, which is structured as a subservicing arrangement with Bank of America, is expected to provide an initial transfer of approximately 4,000 units on June 16, 2012. Green Tree has been approved to receive up to 30,000 units under the program and expects the units serviced to increase significantly as additional transfers are completed. The program covers 27 securitization trusts wherein Bank of America will transfer the servicing for certain types of loans to Green Tree in accordance with the Bank of America/Bank of New York Countrywide RMBS settlement agreement.
Mark O'Brien, Walter Investment's Chairman and CEO commented, "We are pleased to have completed our first delinquency flow program. As we discussed previously, these programs are strategic to Walter Investment, as we expect them to provide both a source of high margin replenishment of our portfolio and consistent, predictable boardings for our operating team to manage. We are in negotiations to add another program in the second half of the year, and have several additional flow programs in our pipeline. We believe that the program announced today, coupled with the additional program in the second half of 2012, will provide average monthly unit boardings approximately equal to our current average monthly runoff by the end of the year."
