"Brokers have grown market share in recent years, reaching about 20.7% in the fourth quarter of 2025, according to Inside Mortgage Finance. They emphasize pricing transparency and consumer choice but face rising fixed costs for compliance, technology and marketing, like other originators."
"Access to private equity capital, like Presidio's investment in Edge, can give broker platforms more scale to negotiate with wholesale lenders, invest in borrower-facing digital tools and pursue roll-up acquisitions of smaller shops."
"Tom Ahles, president of Edge Home Finance, said the partnership is intended to accelerate Edge's expansion and technology plans. Presidio brings the technology vision and strategic guidance we need to expand our reach and further elevate our service delivery."
Edge Home Finance originated approximately $8.6 billion in mortgages over the past year, primarily in Texas, Florida, and Minnesota. The company has 1,295 sponsored loan officers. Brokers have increased their market share to about 20.7% in the fourth quarter of 2025. Rising fixed costs for compliance and technology challenge brokers. Presidio's investment in Edge aims to enhance scale and technology, facilitating expansion and improved service delivery. The partnership focuses on fee-based housing and mortgage services rather than traditional mortgage banking operations.
