The article examines the current state of the mortgage subservicing industry amid high interest rates, which have heightened the value of mortgage servicing rights (MSRs). Despite this, the subservicing market saw a decline to $3.96 trillion by the end of 2024. Major players like Mr. Cooper have undergone active consolidation, acquiring various servicing assets to enhance scale, which is increasingly necessary to manage rising servicing costs, particularly for nonperforming loans. Efforts toward efficiency and market consolidation are key trends in the sector.
The recent wave of consolidation in the subservicing industry reflects the critical importance of scale and efficiency as servicing costs rise.
Despite the high interest rates generating stable income opportunities for MSRs, the overall subservicing market has been relatively stagnant, decreasing to $3.96 trillion.
