- KBRA’s rating on the Series 2024-SAT1 Term Notes is primarily driven by the credit rating of Freedom Mortgage Corporation (“FMC”) (KBRA Rating: BB+/Stable) as repurchase obligor under a repo facility in support of the Issuer’s mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) granted by Ginnie Mae to FMC, with certain transaction features, such as (i) the alignment of interest between FMC, Ginnie Mae, and the VFN and term noteholders, (ii) the potential ability to transfer servicing in the event of a FMC default, (iii) the existence of the Ginnie Mae Acknowledgment Agreement, and (iv) the requirement that the borrowing base be trued up monthly, providing slight uplift on the rating of the notes.
