Redwood Trust is expanding its real estate investor loan business with the recent acquisition of CoreVest American Finance Lender for a total of $490 million.
"Since its founding in 2014, CoreVest has funded more than $4 billion in loans, including more than $1.1 billion in 2019 so far. The company is also an experienced securitization issuer, having recently completed its ninth single-family rental securitization," according to HousingWire.
