Warehouse payable represents loans outstanding under a warehouse facility provided by a commercial bank but prior to GNMA securitization. The borrowing rate on the warehouse facility is based upon a variable interest rate of 1 month LIBOR plus a spread. The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. This warehouse facility is used to fund loans held for sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
(3)
Corresponds with escrow deposit in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet (see note 1 above).
