Growth

Caliber’s servicing portfolio has grown from $6.5 billion in March 2012[3] to $147 billion in December 2018.[4] Caliber’s growth has been fueled in part by its purchase of non-performing loans from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and government-sponsored enterprises like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

In June 2016, Caliber was named #1 in Top Volume Gain by national trade publication Scotsman Guide. From 2014 to 2015, the company’s volume increased by over 100% when compared to its 2014 volume. [5]

In 2017, Caliber produced over $43 billion - its highest overall sales volume ever. [6] This high production earned Caliber the #1 ranking in Scotsman Guide's annual Top Overall Volume list in 2018. [7]

Caliber’s Wholesale division is currently the #2 Wholesale Lender in the nation. [8]

Awards

Caliber was ranked 8th in the J.D. Power 2016 U.S. Primary Mortgage Servicer Satisfaction Study™, earning a Four Power Circle Rating™.[9]

Caliber's performance as a loan servicer earned them recognition as a 2018 Fannie Mae STARTM STAR Performer for General Servicing. This was the result of an assessment that rated Caliber as Favorable in Investor Reporting and Accounting, Customer Service and Collections. [10]

The publisher of publisher of the militaryfriendly.com and GIjobs.com websites, VIQTORY, has awarded Caliber both the Military Friendly® Employer [11] and Military Friendly® Brand [12] designations based on Caliber's company-wide investment in supporting and hiring members of America’s military and their families.

Loan Products

In addition to conventional, FHA, VA and USDA loans, Caliber offers several portfolio loans. These were designed by Caliber Home Loans for prospective borrowers who may not be served by other lenders.[13] All portfolio loans comply with Ability to Repay guidelines as set forth by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).[14]

Military Initiatives

In 2016, Caliber launched an expanded initiative to support military veterans, reservists and those still in active service. In addition to offering VA-insured home loans and refinancing, Caliber focused on building partnerships with organizations that support community outreach projects.[15]

gollark: In the A, B and C example, I'd want servers B and C to continue working even if A fails.
gollark: I mean, more generally, if I ensure that the servers are arranged acyclically, it gets easier, but that also has redundancy issues.
gollark: Yes, but I want redundancy.
gollark: I wonder if it would be possible to somehow run skynet routing on top of BGP or something insane like that.
gollark: What network?
