Note 22 — Commitments
Servicer Advance Obligations In the normal course of business as servicer or master servicer, we are required to advance loan principal and interest payments (P&I), property taxes and insurance premiums (T&I) on behalf of the borrower, if delinquent. We also advance legal fees, inspection, maintenance, and preservation costs (Corporate advances) on properties that are in default or have been foreclosed. Our obligations to make these advances are governed by servicing agreements or guides, depending on investors or guarantor. Advances made by us as primary servicer are generally recovered from the borrower or the mortgage loan investor. To the extent there are funds held for future distribution in the custodial accounts, generally we are permitted to borrow from these amounts if P&I advances are required. Advances are primarily recovered from the borrower via a cure of the delinquency, proceeds from sale of loan collateral, mortgage insurance proceeds, or the investor. For PLS loans, generally, we may stop advancing for P&I once future advances are deemed non-recoverable from the anticipated net proceeds of the property, although we are generally obligated to continue T&I and Corporate advances until the loan delinquency is cured or until a completion of a foreclosure and sale of the REO. For Ginnie Mae loans, we are required to make advances for the life of the loan without regard to whether we will be able to recover those payments from cure, liquidation proceeds, insurance proceeds, or late payments. We may stop advancing P&I by purchasing loans out of the pool when they are more than 90 days delinquent. We are also required to advance both T&I and Corporate advances until cure or liquidation. For GSE loans, we are required to advance P&I until the borrower is 120 days delinquent for Fannie Mae loans, but advance only interest payments for the same length of delinquency for Freddie Mac loans. For Freddie Mac loans, servicers may submit claims for T&I and Corporate advances upon borrower resolution or liquidation. For Fannie Mae loans, we can submit reimbursement claims for certain T&I and Corporate advances after incurring the expense. T&I and Corporate advancing on GSE loans continues until the completion of the foreclosure sale. As subservicer, we are required to make T&I and Corporate advances and in some cases P&I advances on behalf of servicers in accordance with the servicing agreements or guides. Servicers are generally required to reimburse us within 30 days of our advancing under the terms of the subservicing agreements. We are generally reimbursed by Rithm the same day we fund P&I advances, or within no more than three days for servicing advances and certain P&I advances under the Onity agreements. Rithm is obligated to fund new servicing advances with respect to the MSRs underlying the Rights to MSRs (RMSR), pursuant to the servicing agreements. Rithm has the responsibility to fund advances for loans where they own the MSR, i.e., are the servicer of record. We are dependent upon Rithm for funding the servicing advance obligations for Rights to MSRs where we are the servicer of record. As the servicer of record, we are contractually required under our servicing agreements to make certain servicing advances even if Rithm does not perform its contractual obligations to fund those advances. Unfunded Lending Commitments We have originated floating-rate reverse mortgage loans under which the borrowers have additional borrowing capacity of $3.0 billion at March 31, 2025. This additional borrowing capacity is available on a scheduled or unscheduled payment basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we funded $76.8 million out of the $3.1 billion borrowing capacity as of December 31, 2024. We also had short-term commitments to lend $1.6 billion and $38.3 million in connection with our forward and reverse mortgage loan IRLCs, respectively, outstanding at March 31, 2025. We finance originated and purchased forward and reverse mortgage loans with repurchase and participation agreements, also referred to as warehouse lines, prior to their respective securitization. HMBS Issuer Obligations As an HMBS issuer, we assume certain obligations related to each security issued. The most significant obligation is the requirement to purchase loans out of the Ginnie Mae securitization pools once the outstanding principal balance of a reverse mortgage loan is equal to or greater than 98% of the maximum claim amount (MCA repurchases). The table below provides the breakdown of the portfolio UPB with respect to the percentage of the MCA at March 31, 2025.
Securitized HECM loans at less than 92% MCA | $ | 8,774.3 |
Securitized HECM loans at equal to or greater than 92% and less than 95% MCA | 605.6 |
Securitized HECM loans at equal to or greater than 95% MCA and less than 98% MCA | 676.8 |
Total Securitized HECM loans UPB | $ | 10,056.7 |
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased HECM loans from Ginnie Mae securitizations in the amount of $156.9 million and $41.9 million, respectively. Activity with regard to HMBS repurchases for the three months ended March 31, 2025 is as follows:
|  |  | Active (2) |  |  |  | Inactive |  |  | Total
Beginning balance |  |  | $ | 68.5 |  |  |  |  | $ | 159.5 |  |  |  |  | $ | 228.0 |
Additions |  |  | 103.0 |  |  |  |  | 53.9 |  |  |  |  | 156.9 |
Recoveries, net (1) |  |  | (68.2) |  |  |  |  | (8.7) |  |  |  |  | (76.9) |
Transfers |  |  | 4.9 |  |  |  |  | (4.9) |  |  |  |  | — |
Changes in value |  |  | 0.2 |  |  |  |  | (4.2) |  |  |  |  | (4.0) |
Ending balance |  |  | $ | 108.5 |  |  |  |  | $ | 195.6 |  |  |  |  | $ | 304.1 |
(1)Includes amounts received upon assignment of loan to HUD, loan payoff, REO liquidation and claim proceeds less any amounts charged off as unrecoverable. (2)Excludes $381.6 million UPB in loans directly assigned to HUD from the underlying Ginnie Mae securities without a cash repurchase from us. Client Concentration Our Servicing segment has exposure to concentration risk and client retention risk. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, servicing and subservicing fees from Rithm amounted to $22.2 million, or 14% of total servicing and subservicing fees (excluding ancillary income), and the related Rithm Pledged MSR liability expense amounted to $9.0 million. As of March 31, 2025, Rithm represented $34.7 billion, or 11% of the UPB and 21% of the loan count of our total servicing and subservicing portfolio, and approximately 58% of all delinquent loans that Onity services. Our subservicing agreements with Rithm provide for automatic one-year renewals, unless Onity or Rithm provide advance notice of termination. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 Rithm exercised their previously agreed right to transfer up to 15% of the mortgage loans to another subservicer and transferred $5.7 billion in UPB to its own servicing platform, with an additional $1.9 billion in UPB expected to deboard in the second quarter of 2025. If Rithm exercises its right to terminate the subservicing agreements for convenience by November 1, 2025 or for cause at any time, we might need to right-size certain aspects of our servicing business as well as the related corporate support functions, and we may need to adjust our daily liquidity management due to the reduction of servicing float balances associated with the Rithm agreements. Also refer to Note 8 — Other Financing Liabilities, at Fair Value and Note 14 – Other Liabilities.
