NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA assigns preliminary ratings to seven classes of mortgage-backed certificates from Angel Oak Mortgage Trust 2025-1 (AOMT 2025-1), a $342.0 million non-prime RMBS transaction. The underlying collateral, comprised of 631 residential mortgages, is characterized by a significant concentration of loans underwritten using alternative income documentation. All the loans are either classified as non-qualified mortgages (56.6%) or exempt (43.4%) from the Ability-to-Repay/Qualified Mortgage rule due to being originated for non-consumer loan purposes. Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions originated 43.0% of the pool, with no other originator comprised over 10% of the collateral. KBRA’s rating approach incorporated loan-level analysis of the mortgage pool through its Residential Asset Loss Model (REALM), an examination of the results from third-party loan file due diligence, cash flow modeling analysis of the transaction’s payment structure, reviews of key transaction parties and an assessment of the transaction’s legal structure and documentation.
