The transaction consists entirely of first and second lien home equity line of credit (HELOC) loans. The underlying pool is seasoned two months and comprises of 4,228 loans originated by Achieve Home Loans. The HELOC collateral consists of fixed-rate mortgages (FRMs) with 5-year initial draw windows and fully amortizing 10-year (74.3%) and 15-year (25.7%) terms. As of the cut-off date, the borrowers in the loan pool have an outstanding aggregate current balance of $253.1 million from the combined credit limit of $256.4 million (a 98.7% current draw percentage, also referred to as the utilization rate).
The ACHM 2024-HE2 deal structure incorporates a pro-rata/sequential-pay hybrid payment waterfall that is subject to the satisfaction of an overcollateralization test and two performance triggers – a Cumulative Loss Trigger and a Delinquency Trigger. If the overcollateralization amount remains above the target and both performance triggers are satisfied, available funds are allocated pro-rata to the Class A, B and C Notes up to the Principal Distribution Amount. However, if either the overcollateralization amount falls to or below the overcollateralization floor or either performance trigger fails, the Class A, B and C Notes will be paid down sequentially. Interest to the Class A, B and C Notes is distributed sequentially but prioritized before paying down any of the Notes. The deal structure also includes a Reserve Account to fund draws and Overcollateralization that are both fully funded and replenished by the waterfall.
