November 20, 2007 - DebtX, one of the nation’s largest loan sale advisors for commercial debt, will sell $26 million in foreclosed home loans secured by properties in suburban Fort Myers, Florida on December 13, 2007.
The transaction involves the sale of 100 loans in single-family subdivisions in Cape Coral, Lehigh Acres and Northpoint near Fort Myers. The average FICO score of the borrowers is 692, the average loan balance is $261,000 and the average value of the home was $360,000 at funding. Investors can register to make bids at www.debtx.com or by calling DebtX at 617.531.3400.
“The $26 million in residential loans for sale through DebtX represent a good opportunity for investors to acquire high-quality assets,” said DebtX CEO Kingsley Greenland. “We’re anticipating strong demand from Florida investors, as well as those looking to diversify their portfolio. This is one of the largest credit union loan sales in recent memory.”
The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the independent federal agency that charters and supervises federal credit unions, selected DebtX to manage the sale after it placed into conservatorship the assets of Huron River Area Credit Union of Ann Arbor, Michigan in February 2007. Huron River Area Credit Union serves approximately 39,000 members and had $348 million in assets at the time of conservatorship.
