At Least $25 Billion in MSR Sales Under Way: Cendant.
One of these days Cendant Corp. will finally unload its mortgage subsidiary, but in the meantime it is testing the waters by selling a chunk of the unit's residential servicing portfolio.
As Mortgage Servicing News went to press this month, sources said Matrix Capital was taking bids on a $10 billion bulk deal of servicing rights owned by Cendant Mortgage Corp. of Mount Laurel, N.J. Which firm won the bid was uncertain. Denver-based Matrix and CMC did not respond to telephone calls.
At the end of June, CMC had $144 billion in servicing rights on its books, ranking 10th nationwide.
CMC has been on the auction block all year and even though there have been serious lookers - most notably Countrywide Home Loans, Calabasas, Calif. - a deal has yet to be consummated.
Employees at the mortgage unit are anxiously awaiting any news about the their future. One source inside CMC said rumors about layoffs are rampant at the company and many fear for their jobs.
Both CMC and its parent have kept a stone-cold silence about their immediate intentions.
One investment banking source said recently that a private-equity firm has been talking to Cendant about buying all or part of CMC.
