Add lender-servicer Guild Mortgage to the ranks of the nonbank mortgage lenders going public. According to an amended S-1 submitted to the Securities and Exchanges Commission on Thursday, Guild, through parent firm Guild Holdings, is expected to price its initial public offering between $17 and $19 per share as early as next week.The retail and correspondent lender plans to issue 8.5 million Class A shares (plus an option for the underwriters, Wells Fargo, BofA Securities, and JPMorgan Chase, to purchase 1.275 million additional shares). At the $18 midpoint, Guild Holdings would raise about $153 million. Because of the strength of Class B shares, owner McCarthy Partners Management will control 95% of voting rights despite owning just 21% of common stock. San Diego-headquartered Guild, led by Mary Ann McGarry, has made six acquisitions since 2007, which has helped increase its production dramatically. Between December 2007 and the year that ended June 30, origination volume grew annually from $1.4 billion to $27.8 billion, and servicing grew from $2.5 billion to $52.8 billion as of June 30, the lender said in its prospectus.Following the main story, HousingWire also covers a report from Redfin that claims homes in high-risk wildfire areas are more affordable than homes in low-risk areas and a new partnership between the Fair Housing Alliance and the LGBTQ+ Real Estate Alliance.

For some background on the story, here’s a summary of the article:
As the election creeps ever closer, there are plenty of forecasts about how it could impact housing. HousingWire has reported on both the fate of the GSEs and the nation’s economic outlook as a red vs blue battle stirs in Washington. But what about the regulatory bodies that will decide the priorities for enforcement over the next four years?At the HousingWire Annual panel, industry veterans Ed DeMarco, president of the Housing Policy Council, Kris Kully, partner at Mayer Brown, and Richard Andreano, Jr., partner at Ballard Spahr, discussed the future of regulation and enforcement as the industry gears up to run headlong into 2021. Julian Hebron, founder of The Basis Point, moderated the panel.The most notable topic of discussion was the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s recent rescinding of a 2015 compliance bulletin related to marketing services agreements (MSAs), which the bureau said “does not provide the regulatory clarity needed on how to comply with RESPA and Regulation X.” Alongside the rescinding, the CFPB released an FAQ for guidance on the Real Estate Settlement Procedure Act (RESPA), which many companies have been accused of violating over the years – though several of those cases were thrown out.Following the main story, HousingWire an announcement that lender and servicer Finance of America Capital is slated to go public in the first half of 2021 and discusses Offerpad’s partnership with Aires to streamline the relocation process.

Fannie Mae's Doug Duncan on what's to come in 2021
Season 1
Monday, October 12, 2020 • Duration 07:47
In today’s Daily Download episode, HousingWire covers Fannie Mae’s Doug Duncan’s economic predictions for 2021.
For some background on the story, here’s a summary of the article:
Doug Duncan doesn’t claim to be an oracle, but the Fannie Mae Senior Vice President and Chief Economist on Thursday offered some forecasts for 2021, even amid a pandemic that has thrown markets into disarray.
The country is mired in a recession, and while the CARES Act provided a short-term jolt to the economy, much remains uncertain about COVID-19 and its ultimate impact on the U.S. economy and the housing market, he said.
“At the end of 2019, we were at 3.5% unemployment,” Duncan told attendees at HousingWire Annual on Thursday. “We think at the end of 2021, it will be roughly double that, around 6%.”
There are promising signs of a partial recovery, according to Duncan. During the second quarter of 2020, approximately $1.7 trillion in national income was lost. By the time the full data is made available for the third quarter, Duncan estimates that about $1.2 trillion will have been recaptured.
Following the main story, HousingWire covers a new scoring model from FormFree that aims to pave the way to more finical inclusion and a report from Redfin that indicates home prices rose by record numbers on the week ending on Oct. 4.
