NEW YORK, Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Waterfall Asset Management, LLC ("Waterfall" or the "Firm"), a global alternative investment adviser with a focus on specialized asset oriented markets, announced today that it has entered into a letter of intent with Onity Group Inc. (NYSE: ONIT)("Onity"), a leading non-bank mortgage servicer and originator that Waterfall has long partnered with on reverse mortgage servicing, under which Onity will acquire reverse mortgage assets from Mortgage Assets Management, LLC ("MAM"), a subsidiary of investment funds managed by Waterfall.

"This transaction is an exciting development for Waterfall, showcasing our commitment to growing our reverse mortgage initiatives through partnerships with top firms like Onity," said Leo Wong, Partner at Waterfall. "This strategic partnership combines our capital and expertise with Onity's operational capabilities, enabling us to seek exceptional investment opportunities. We look forward to expanding this collaboration to leverage our complementary strengths."

"We are excited about today's announcement and what it means for our ability to continue growing our Home Equity Conversion Mortgage activities," said Wong. "We see HECMs as a valuable tool for homeowners in today's environment, many of whom have accumulated substantial equity but also benefit from low mortgage rates so want to access that equity without selling their home, and are pleased to be able to support the growth of this dynamic sector of real estate finance."
