章节摘录

　　Stanley Street， the president of Street Resource Group Inc.， an Atlanta warehouse lending technology firm， said mortgage lenders should be careful not to look for just "the cheapest source of funds." They also need a reliable warehouse lender that will remain in the business over time and has the expertise to help them work through any operational issues and grow， Mr. Street said. These characteristics are more typical of traditional warehouse lenders that do not view warehouse lending mainly as a way to acquire loans，he said.　　But if cut-rate pricing on the warehouse line is a benefit of getting one from the same company you sell loans to， it is not the only benefit. Logistically， it can be easier to sell a loan to a company whose warehouse line funded it， some say. Brad Knapp， the president of First Collateral Services Inc， said his Concord， Calif， warehousing unit of CitiMortgage is able to "deliver the loan information on a loan sale much simpler and more efficiently by keeping it in-house，" so warehousing makes it easier for clients to sell to CitiMortgage.　　Citigroup Inc. acquired First Collateral when it bought Associates First Capital in 2000 and put the warehouse unit under CitiMortgage， its main home lending subsidiary，in April 2002. NovaStar Financial Inc. of Kansas City， Mo.， entered the warehousing business last year， also with the goal of increasing correspondent production. Ken Logan， an executive vice president and the chief operating officer of its Warehouse U. S.unit in Roswell， Ga， said that about 50% of the nonprime loans Novastars correspondent division buys are from his warehouse clients. But he said that would probably fall to about 33% as Warehouse U.S. adds clients.　　Even companies that emphasize that theyre in the warehouse business primarily for the spread and fee income say they are also looking for some correspondent synergies.Mr. Gradone said that about 10% to 20% of National Citys correspondent originations come from warehouse clients， and Mr. Johnston said the two warehouse divisions try actively to connect their clients with National Citys correspondent division.　　"We certainly tend to make referrals back and forth between our correspondent area. We try to cross-sell and introduce our clients to them，" Mr. Johnston said. （Mr.Gradones group lends to smaller， emerging mortgage banks；Mr. Johnstons provides traditional warehouse lines.）Ms. Batlis of Impac said that in "our perfect world， we would provide the warehouse line and buy the product from the mortgage banker，" but this is the exception rather than the rule. "There are many more correspondent clients than warehouse clients， which we see as a great untapped market for us." She went on.

•   对提高阅读很有帮助
