Fort Lauderdale, FL – May 16, 2025 – Qwoted Newswire – A&D Mortgage, a leading issuer of non-QM residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), is pleased to announce the successful closing of its second securitization so far this year, A&D Mortgage Trust 2025-NQM2 (ADMT 2025-NQM2) on May 5, 2025. The $426.67 million transaction marks A&D’s 25thsecuritization issued with A&D-originated collateral and is the 16th transaction to be rated by Fitch featuring collateral originated and serviced by A&D under the Imperial Fund Asset Management platform. This milestone further solidifies the company’s commitment to expanding financing solutions for borrowers with diverse income profiles.
The growing demand for flexible mortgage solutions has made non-prime residential loans essential for self-employed professionals, real estate investors, and creditworthy borrowers outside traditional lending criteria. Non-QM loans fill a crucial gap in the mortgage market by serving borrowers who have strong financials but don’t fit traditional underwriting standards, such as self-employed professionals and real estate investors. By utilizing alternative documentation, these loans provide critical financing options. The recently priced $426.67 million ADMT 2025-NQM2 securitization, backed by 1,136 newly originated loans, highlights the expanding non-QM market and reinforces A&D Mortgage’s leadership alongside partners Atlas Merchant Capital and Imperial Fund Asset Management.
“The successful closing of our second securitization this year is a testament to the ongoing enduring appeal of the non-QM market,” said Max Slyusarchuk, CEO of A&D Mortgage and co-founder of Imperial Fund Asset Management. “For 10 years now, the non-QM space has experienced spectacular growth, from originations, all the way through to the secondary market. We expect to price more deals this year.”
The ADMT 2025-NQM2 transaction underscores the strength of A&D Mortgage’s lending platform and its ability to meet evolving borrower needs.
