NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kroll Bond Rating Agency, Inc. (KBRA) is pleased to announce the assignment of preliminary ratings to Silver Bay Realty 2014-1 mortgage pass-through certificates. Silver Bay Realty 2014-1 is a single-family rental (SFR) securitization that will be collateralized by a single $312.7 million loan secured by mortgages on 3,089 income-producing single-family homes. The loan is secured by the borrower’s fee simple interest in 3,089 one to four unit residential properties located in seven states: Arizona, Georgia, Florida, Nevada, Texas, Ohio and North Carolina. The floating rate loan will require interest-only payments and has a two-year term with three 12-month extension options.
KBRA used a hybrid analysis to evaluate the SFR transaction, which incorporated elements of both our CMBS and RMBS methodologies, as the underlying real estate contains commercial and residential characteristics. As the properties generate a cash flow stream from tenant rental payments, CMBS methodologies were used to determine the loan’s probability of default (PD). To determine loss given default (LGD), KBRA assumed the underlying collateral properties would be liquidated in the residential property market. For details, see our pre-sale report: https://www.krollbondratings.com/show_report/1357.
Silver Bay 2014-1 is a securitization of SFR homes. Seven classes of certificates will be issued, six of which are entitled to monthly distributions of interest and principal and one of which is a residual class.
