Out of the 25 servicers surveyed, 16 saw increases in volume. Also, of those 16, three saw triple-digit percentage increases.

The company to see the largest gain was Salt Lake City-based subprime specialist Select Portfolio Servicing, which serviced nearly $3.4 billion in seconds at March 31, a whopping 253% up from the $960 million it serviced in the same period the year prior.
