Note 8. Residential Investor Loans
We originate and invest in residential investor loans, including term loans and bridge loans. Residential investor term loans consist of mortgage loans secured by stabilized residential real estate, primarily 1–4 unit and multifamily properties, held as rental investments. Residential investor bridge loans are first‑lien, interest‑only loans secured by residential real estate that is vacant or partially occupied and undergoing renovation, rehabilitation, or construction.

Nearly all of the outstanding residential investor term loans at March 31, 2026 were first-lien, fixed-rate loans with original maturities of 5 to 30 years.
The outstanding residential investor bridge loans held-for-investment at March 31, 2026 were first-lien, interest-only loans with original maturities of 8 to 36 months and were comprised of 46% one-month SOFR-indexed adjustable-rate loans, and 54% fixed-rate loans.
At March 31, 2026, we had $203 million in commitments to fund additional advances on existing residential investor bridge loans, of which $92 million related to loans currently in securitizations sponsored by one of our joint ventures. See Note 19 for additional information on these commitments. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we sold $208 million of residential investor bridge loans, net of $28 million of construction draws, to one of our joint ventures.

Loan Modifications
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, consistent with our strategic alignment with our core business strategies, we adopted a more accelerated approach to resolving modified and legacy loans, advancing the wind-down of underperforming legacy assets to reduce long-term exposure to non-core assets. This includes loan and REO sales, structured exits, and, where necessary, foreclosure or liquidation processes on assets with limited workout potential.
We utilize a rigorous and consistently implemented fair value process when evaluating these loans, which involves management’s review of updated appraisals, collateral performance, sales cost estimates, and independent market data when available. This approach, conducted in accordance with GAAP, is designed to ensure that valuations reflect current conditions and project-specific risks. The actual amounts ultimately recovered—whether through foreclosure, collateral sale, or alternative resolutions, such as discounted payoffs or loan sales—may differ significantly from our estimates and could materially affect future earnings. In exchange for a modification, we may receive a partial repayment of principal, capitalized interest for a portion of interest due, a capital infusion to replenish interest or capital improvement reserves, and/or termination of all or a portion of the remaining unfunded loan commitment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we modified or put into forbearance loans with a total aggregate UPB of $182 million and $206 million, respectively. This balance primarily included modifications involving extensions of loan maturities and/or covenant terms ("Simple Modifications") and modifications involving changes to the contractual interest rates (including, in certain cases, deferrals of interest) on loans, which may also include maturity extensions ("Complex Modifications"). An increase in maturity extensions would increase the expected time to repayment with a potential impact on fair values and credit losses. Certain loans may represent subsequent modifications of loans that had been previously modified in a prior reporting period. These further modifications may include adjustments to repayment rates, deferral of interest, floating-to-fixed conversions, maturity extensions (with forbearance or partial repayments), and changes to interest reserves or project completion milestones.
The following table presents a summary of loan modifications by loan terms type for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

$182,053 
(1)Included in this population are loans that had been previously modified in a prior period, with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $15 million involving previous Simple Modifications and $19 million involving previous Complex Modifications.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, loans with an aggregate UPB of $138 million were Simple Modifications and involved the extension of maturities and/or covenant terms. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, loans with an aggregate UPB of $68 million were Complex Modifications and primarily involved adjustments to contractual interest pay rates (including, in certain cases, deferrals of interest). Modifications on these loans maintained a contractual interest rate of approximately 5.00%, and there were no modifications involving interest deferrals. Of this population, we further modified loans that had been previously modified in a prior period, with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $68 million.
While we continue to actively engage with certain borrowers to address the impacts of rising interest rates, elongated project timelines, or other issues, further increases in delinquencies or modifications within our residential investor bridge loan portfolio could ultimately result in further decreases in net interest income and the fair value of our bridge loans held for investment, and further instances of borrower/sponsor financial stress could lead to incremental realized credit losses. An increase in maturity extensions in the residential investor bridge portfolio would increase the expected time to repayment with a potential impact on fair values and credit losses. However, given the overall short duration nature of our bridge loans, a certain level of maturity extensions are a routine asset management outcome for these loans, irrespective of market conditions.
Non-accrual Loans
Non-accrual loans include both securitized and unsecuritized residential investor loans. At March 31, 2026, residential investor loans with an aggregate UPB of $280 million and an aggregate fair value of $242 million were on non-accrual status. Of this balance, loans with $189 million aggregate UPB were on full non-accrual of the contractual coupon interest and loans with $91 million aggregate UPB were on non-accrual of deferred interest. As of March 31, 2026, the majority of these loans were included within our Legacy Investments portfolio and had an aggregate UPB of $245 million and an aggregate fair value of $207 million. Of this balance, loans with $153 million aggregate UPB were on full non-accrual of the contractual coupon interest and loans with $91 million aggregate UPB were on non-accrual of deferred interest.
At December 31, 2025, residential investor loans with an aggregate UPB of $291 million and an aggregate fair value of $255 million were on non-accrual status. Of this balance, loans with $202 million aggregate UPB were on full non-accrual of the contractual coupon interest and loans with $90 million aggregate UPB were on non-accrual of deferred interest. As of December 31, 2025, the majority of these loans were included within our Legacy Investments portfolio and had an aggregate UPB of $243 million and an aggregate fair value of $208 million. Of this balance, loans with $153 million aggregate UPB were on full non-accrual of the contractual coupon interest and loans with $90 million aggregate UPB were on non-accrual of deferred interest
