Short-Term Debt

We enter into repurchase agreements, bank warehouse agreements, and other forms of collateralized (and generally uncommitted) short-term borrowings with several banks and major investment banking firms. At December 31, 2017, we had outstanding agreements with several counterparties and we were in compliance with all of the related covenants. For additional information about these financial covenants and our short-term debt, see Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K under the heading “Risks Relating to Debt Incurred Under Short- and Long-Term Borrowing Facilities.”

The table below summarizes our short-term debt, including the facilities that are available to us, the outstanding balances, the weighted average interest rate, and the maturity information at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Borrowings under our facilities are generally charged interest based on a specified margin over the one-month LIBOR interest rate. At December 31, 2017, all of these borrowings were under uncommitted facilities and were due within 364 days (or less) of the borrowing date.

The fair value of held-for-sale residential loans and real estate securities pledged as collateral was $1.15 billion and $788 million, respectively, at December 31, 2017 and $534 million and $363 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the average balances of our short-term debt facilities were $1.08 billion and $1.09 billion, respectively. At December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, accrued interest payable on our short-term debt facilities was $2 million and $1 million, respectively.

During the second quarter of 2017, $288 million principal amount of 4.625% convertible senior notes and $2 million of unamortized deferred issuance costs were reclassified from long-term debt to short-term debt, as the maturity of the notes was less than one year as of April 2017. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2017, we repurchased $37 million par value of these notes at a premium and recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1 million in Realized gains, net on our consolidated statements of income. At December 31, 2017, the accrued interest payable balance on this debt was $2 million. See Note 13 for additional information on our convertible notes.

We also maintain a $10 million committed line of credit with a financial institution that is secured by certain mortgage-backed securities with a fair market value of $5 million at December 31, 2017. At both December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had no outstanding borrowings on this facility.
