Taxable Tail MBS with MTEB - Immediate Funding

When paired with a Fannie Mae MBS as Tax Exempt Collateral (“MTEB”), a Taxable Tail provides additional financing for immediate funding transactions in the form of an MBS Mortgage Loan. The Taxable Tail is financed in combination with an immediate funding MTEB. The two components are underwritten, rate-locked, closed and delivered as a single loan transaction.
