Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Public Companies.

MCLEAN, Va., May 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Freddie Mac (OTCQB: FMCC) announced today the pricing of the first Seasoned Loans Structured Transaction Trust (SLST) offering of 2022 — a securitization of approximately $385 million including both guaranteed senior and non-guaranteed subordinate securities backed by a pool of seasoned residential mortgage loans. The SLST program is a fundamental part of Freddie Mac’s seasoned loan offerings which reduce less-liquid assets in its mortgage-related investments portfolio and shed credit and market risk via economically reasonable transactions.

Freddie Mac SLST Series 2022-1 includes approximately $345 million in guaranteed senior certificates and approximately $40 million in non-guaranteed subordinate certificates. The right to purchase the subordinate certificates was awarded on May 16 via an auction. The transaction is expected to settle on May 26, 2022.

The underlying collateral backing the certificates consists of 2,731 fixed-, adjustable-, and step-rate seasoned loans, and includes both loans that were modified to assist borrowers at risk of foreclosure and loans that were never modified. As of the Cutoff Date, none of the loans are more than 150 days delinquent.

The loans are currently serviced by Specialized Loan Servicing, LLC (SLS) and NewRez LLC, d/b/a Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing in accordance with requirements that, in the event of default, prioritize borrower retention options in the event of default and promote neighborhood stability.

Advisors to this transaction are BofA Securities, Inc and JPMorgan Chase & Co. as co-lead managers and joint bookrunners, and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Nomura Securities International, Inc., Oppenheimer & Co., Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and R. Seelaus & Co., LLC (a woman-owned business) as the co-managers.

To date, Freddie Mac has sold almost $9.7 billion of non-performing loans and securitized approximately $76 billion of re-performing loans consisting of $30 billion of fully guaranteed PCs, $34 billion of SCRT senior/sub securitizations, and almost $12 billion of Seasoned Loans Structured Transaction offerings.
