(1)For BPL term at Redwood, represents the transfer of loans from held-for-sale to held-for-investment associated with CAFL term securitizations. For BPL bridge at Redwood, represents the transfer of BPL bridge loans from "Bridge at Redwood" to "Bridge at CAFL" resulting from their inclusion in one of our bridge loan securitizations, which each have replenishment features.
(2)Represents loan origination fee income and net market valuation changes from the time a loan is originated to when it is sold, securitized or transferred to our investment portfolio. See Table 20.1 for additional detail on Mortgage banking activities income (loss).
(3)For BPL Bridge at Redwood, represents net market valuation changes for loans classified as held-for-investment and associated interest-only strip liabilities. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we substituted a pool of held-for-sale term loans at Redwood for a non-performing held-for-investment term loan at a consolidated CAFL securitization, each with unpaid principal balances of approximately $28 million. The negative investment fair value changes recorded for BPL Term at Redwood during the year ended December 31, 2023 were attributable to this substitution, with an equal and offsetting positive fair value change recorded for BPL Term at CAFL (related to the retained bond we own in the associated consolidated CAFL securitization).
