The Top Multifamily Lenders for Freddie Mac in 2018
The GSE closed $78 billion in total product last year and securitized a record $72.8 billion.
Last year Freddie Mac Multifamily closed $78 billion in total production, besting the GSE’s prior record of $73.2 billion set in 2017. The $78 billion financed approximately 860,000 rental units — more than 90% of which were affordable to low- and moderate-income families.
The company also securitized a record total of $72.8 billion through its various offerings, such as K and SB Deals. Of Freddie Mac’s total volume of $77.5 billion, $44.9 billion was not subject to the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s volume cap. Uncapped transactions can include loans for affordable housing, smaller multifamily properties, seniors housing, manufactured housing communities, and energy- and water-saving improvements.
This activity was made possible, of course, through the GSE’s network of lenders. Here are the top companies that worked with Freddie Mac last year.
