SAN FRANCISCO – July 22, 2024 – Kiavi, a leading provider of capital to residential real estate investors, today announced it closed a $350 million unrated securitization of residential transition loans (“RTLs”). This marks Kiavi’s 18th transaction under its LHOME shelf, bringing the company’s total issuance to more than $4.7 billion in offered notes since it began its securitization program in 2019 and nearly $1 billion in the first six months of 2024.
The transaction garnered significant interest from a broad set of institutional investors. The offered notes are in three classes, A1, A2, and M, all of which were sold. Consistent with prior LHOME transactions, the deal includes a two-year revolving period, during which principal payoffs can be reinvested to purchase additional newly originated loans.

Our consistency, track record, and performance continue to garner significant institutional demand for Kiavi’s RTL assets,” he added.
