Documents are signed and funds are exchanged. • The mortgage broker sells the loan to a Wholesaler/Servicer. • If the Wholesale/Servicer does not want to retain the loan, then they sell the loan to an Investor otherwise the Servicer is also the Investor. • The Investor securitizes the mortgage in a pool of similar mortgages. • The borrower makes their monthly payments to the Servicer which is then passed through to the holder of the Mortgage Backed Security.
