ProvenPool vs MAXEX
A digital exchange where mortgage lenders sell loans to 35+ institutional buyers under one contract, with daily pricing.
- What it is
- Residential mortgage exchange
- Built for
- Mortgage banks and financial institutions selling residential loans
- Loan types
- Jumbo, conforming, non-QM and DSCR mortgage
- Delivered as
- Marketplace and clearinghouse
What MAXEX does well
- One contract with 35+ institutional buyers, daily pricing and no monthly minimums
- Delegated, non-delegated and bulk channels, including seasoned bulk sales
- Standardized guidelines per program and a no-login eligibility checker
- Exception requests with compensating factors, resolved in as little as one to two days on the delegated channel
- Investor review before purchase on the non-delegated channel
Where it differs from a seller’s needs
- Residential mortgage only
- The eligibility checker reads one loan's attributes against MAXEX programs, not a whole tape against a specific buyer's criteria
- Readiness work before delivery (data fixes, missing documents, concentration) stays with the seller
What ProvenPool does instead
- Built for the loans MAXEX doesn't trade: consumer, auto, credit union participations, community bank pools and small business
- Every loan and the whole pool tested at once, including documents and concentration limits
- Defects routed to the seller's own teams, with an evidence package for whichever buyer or venue is next
