AS WE roll on into the first few months of 2025, one thing’s for certain: it’s been an interesting start to the year. Rising interest rates, a stubbornly flat yield curve, and ongoing economic uncertainty have all contributed to a challenging start.
“The market isn’t quite what we expected it to be,” notes Michael Franco, CEO of SitusAMC. “Many of us planned for mortgage rates in the range of 6.5 to 7.25 percent, but here we are today north of seven percent. It’s a challenge for both originators and their clients.”
Navigating these headwinds requires not just skill and resilience but also the right partnerships. Enter SitusAMC, a leading provider of real estate finance technology and services, renowned for supporting the mortgage industry at every stage of the loan lifecycle. From origination to securitization and beyond, SitusAMC is uniquely positioned to help originators and other primary market participants improve efficiency, capitalize on opportunities in a complex environment, and cement a mutually beneficial partnership for the long term.
SitusAMC is a leading independent provider of technology, strategic outsourcing, talent, and advisory solutions to the commercial and residential real estate finance industries. The company helps clients identify and capture opportunities in their real estate businesses through industry-leading services and innovative technologies that drive operational efficiency, increase business effectiveness, and improve market agility across the entire life cycle of their global real estate activity.

The mortgage industry has seen its fair share of disruption in recent years, from tightening regulatory standards to increased borrower expectations for digital solutions. SitusAMC brings to bear a comprehensive approach that doesn’t just solve one problem; it ensures clients can meet challenges at every stage of the loan lifecycle.
“We’re not just a point solution provider,” says Franco. “We’re a partner who helps clients execute on the entirety of their business strategy. From originating and selling loans to managing portfolios, selling mortgage servicing rights [MSRs], and valuing assets, we offer end-to-end support.”
For brokers, the origination process is the critical first step in delivering a seamless client experience. SitusAMC provides tools and services to streamline this phase, including licensed underwriting, credit and asset reviews, and technology solutions designed to reduce errors and improve efficiency. SitusAMC also supports institutions venturing into new secondary market strategies by providing pre-close reviews and compliance assessments.
“If you’re trying to originate loans for sale into the secondary market, it can be a very different experience,” Franco says. “We help ensure those loans meet the necessary standards, so you’re not left dealing with a scratch-and-dent execution. If you’re trying to enter a new market and start taking haircuts on the production, it’s a real quick way to lose money fast – and suddenly you’re wondering, ‘Why am I doing that?’ We help people do it right.”
SitusAMC has built a stellar reputation in the secondary market, where it plays a pivotal role in helping brokers and lenders execute transactions efficiently and compliantly. As the only institution to have participated in roughly 625 securitizations over the last three years, covering about 400,000 loans, its expertise in due diligence and transaction management ensures that loans are securitized or sold without hiccups, maximizing value and minimizing risk.
Additionally, SitusAMC offers a suite of technology solutions tailored to secondary market activities, including rate-lock systems, document-management platforms, and data aggregation tools. These technologies allow brokers to stay competitive in an increasingly fast-paced environment while ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
For those managing servicing portfolios – or working closely with servicers – SitusAMC provides solutions that enable efficient loan administration, portfolio valuation, and data aggregation. It values over $7 trillion in MSRs every month and hundreds of billions in home loans, providing a depth of expertise that’s unrivaled in the industry.
“We’re a holistic provider who’s very client-centric in our delivery because we look at it as a long-term relationship: we want people to stay with us for 30 years,” Franco says. “The size, scale, and depth of our
