The weighted average interest rate for warehouse lines of credit was 7.0% at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. All warehouse lines of credit are collateralized by underlying mortgages and related documents. Existing balances on warehouse lines are repaid through the sale proceeds from the collateralized loans held for sale. The Company had cash balances of $6.4 million and $8.7 million in its warehouse buy down accounts as offsets to certain lines of credit at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The agreements governing the Company’s warehouse lines of credit contain covenants that include certain financial requirements, including maintenance of maximum adjusted leverage ratio, minimum net worth, minimum tangible net worth, minimum liquidity, adjusted pre-tax net income and limitations on additional indebtedness, dividends, sale of assets, and decline in the mortgage loan servicing portfolio’s fair value. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
The Company has an optional short-term financing agreement between FNMA and the lender described as “As Soon As Pooled” (“ASAP”).

The Company determines utilization based on warehouse availability and cash needs. There were no outstanding balances as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 on the ASAP financing.
