NewRez and Shelter Mortgage Announce Formation of New Joint Venture Lender, Landed Home Loans

NewRez LLC (“NewRez”), a national mortgage lender, announced today the formation of a new joint venture mortgage company to be added to its network of partners. NewRez and Shelter Mortgage Company, L.L.C. (“Shelter Mortgage”), the NewRez business division focused on JV lending, have partnered in this venture with Landed, Inc. (“Landed”), a company based in San Francisco with down payment support and homebuyer education programs aimed at helping teachers and school employees afford to buy homes. The new joint venture lender, to be named Landed Home Loans LLC (“Landed Home Loans”), is based in Colorado and is currently recruiting a centralized sales leader and team to support borrowers in select markets nationwide.

In addition to Landed’s unique shared equity down payment program, the company also works with school employees to help them navigate and access all of the available options for buying a home and offers education in finance and the homebuying process. Through partnership with lending industry leader Shelter Mortgage, Landed is able to significantly expand its services and impact. Landed Home Loans is creating a centralized platform with a customized origination and operations system, designed specifically for Landed customers.

“We are excited to join Landed in its mission to help these critical community supporters purchase homes that might otherwise be out of their reach,” says Randy VandenHouten, SVP, Joint Venture & Retail Lending, NewRez. “As we continue to seek out creative leadership and innovative partnerships to complement and expand our joint venture channel, we are impressed by Landed’s outside the box and thoughtful approach to the homebuying experience.”

“The partnership with NewRez, backed by Shelter Mortgage’s 30 years of industry experience, enables us to greatly strengthen the support we can offer essential professionals as they move through the homebuying process,” says Jesse Vaughan, Co-Founder, Landed. “By adding a lender partnership, we further Landed’s mission to help those who serve our communities build financial security.”
