November 1 traditionally marks the return of the NBA to our living rooms, but more importantly this year also saw a big jump in the number of HECM endorsements reported for the month just ended. October rebounded to 4,852 loans, up 29% to the highest level since February.
In a jump that big, many lenders and regions were big winners:
- RMS/S1L more than doubled from September, up 107% to 454 loans and the highest total for the company since February
- Reverse Mortgage Funding continues to climb the charts, up 80% to 220 loans and breaking into the top 10 on a trailing twelve months basis
The eastern seaboard saw particular strength and the top three percentage increase among our 10 regions tracked:
- New York/NJ up 41.6% to 470 loans
- New England up 38.9% to 232
- Mid-Atlantic up 37.9% to 582
