Arixa Capital Finalizes $275 Million Securitization of Residential Transition Loans
Arixa Capital Secures $275 Million through Securitization
Arixa Capital, a prominent player in the private real estate lending market, has announced the successful closing of a securitization deal totaling $275 million related to residential transition loans (RTLs). This notable action reflects Arixa's position as a pivotal alternative investment manager amidst a dynamic financial landscape.
The securitization, backed by a joint venture with funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, was met with overwhelming enthusiasm from institutional investors, resulting in an oversubscription that was more than three times its capacity. The issued notes are divided into two classes, class A1, which was sold to investors, and class A2, deliberately retained by Arixa. An innovative aspect of this deal is the two-year revolving period, which enables the reinvestment of principal payments from the underlying loans into newly originated assets, thereby expanding the funding capacity.
Seth Davis, Managing Director at Arixa Capital, emphasized the ongoing demand for dependable financing solutions in the residential market, particularly as traditional credit avenues remain limited. The securitization bolsters Arixa's capability to provide financial support to builders and developers who are essential in stimulating the housing supply across the United States.
This marks a milestone in Arixa's rapid expansion trajectory, having originated a record $1.4 billion in loans during the previous year, 2024, which was a historic high for the firm. This year already shows promising growth, with Arixa surpassing $1 billion in loan originations at an accelerated rate. This achievement has pushed the cumulative loan volume past $6 billion since the firm's inception.
In response to the increasing need for reliable capital, Arixa is strategically broadening its market presence by onboarding new loan originators in prominent states such as Arizona, California, Colorado, Minnesota, and Texas.
Greg Hebner, another Managing Director at Arixa, remarked on the swift scaling of the firm, indicating that the closure of the RTL securitization signals a new phase of growth. By diversifying its sources of capital, Arixa aims to reaffirm its commitment to delivering dependable financing solutions across various market cycles.
Jason Keller, Managing Director and Assistant Portfolio Manager with Oaktree, praised Arixa's consistent capacity to originate high-quality assets and sustain robust credit performance. The securitization aligns with Oaktree's strategic goals and their partnership with Arixa is set to foster further growth for Arixa's lending initiatives.
Performance Trust Capital Partners played a critical role in this process, serving as the sole structuring agent and bookrunner for the transaction.
