| theflyonthewall.com: | Newcastle Investment to acquire Excess mortgage servicing rights from Nationstar | | Newcastle (NCT) has signed a definitive agreement to acquire up to a 65% interest in excess mortgage servicing rights from Nationstar Mortgage (NSM) in connection with Nationstar’s acquisition of certain residential mortgage servicing rights and other assets from ResCap in connection with ResCap’s proposed sale of these assets pursuant to an auction supervised under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Newcastle expects to invest between $150 million to $300 million to acquire an interest in Excess MSRs related to Nationstar’s proposed acquisition of primary mortgage servicing rights with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $201 billion as of February 29, 2012. Nationstar will be the servicer of the loans and will invest alongside Newcastle by retaining an approximately 35% interest in the Excess MSRs. Approximately 65% of loans associated with the primary mortgage servicing rights are owned, insured or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae. The cash purchase price of the mortgage servicing rights and subservicing contracts would be approximately $700 million based on unpaid principal balances as of February 29, 2012. Nationstar anticipates that the court will approve in mid-June the auction procedures and timeline for the sale of the Mortgage Servicing Assets and that the auction process will last approximately 90 days, during which time ResCap will solicit competing bids. If Nationstar is the successful bidder, then ResCap will seek court approval to sell the Mortgage Servicing Assets to Nationstar and the closing of the Transaction would be expected to occur in late 2012. :theflyonthewall.com |
