KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to OBX 2026-INV6 Trust

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA assigns preliminary ratings to 65 classes of mortgage pass-through notes from OBX 2026-INV6 Trust, a prime RMBS transaction secured by second homes (37.6%) and investment properties (62.4%), collectively, non-owner occupied or “NOO” properties. The underlying collateral consists of 910 agency eligible, fixed-rate mortgages (FRMs) with an aggregate unpaid principal balance (UPB) of approximately $356.4 million as of the September 1, 2026 cut-off date. Movement Mortgage, LLC (13.3%) is the only originator comprising over 10% of the pool.

KBRA’s rating approach incorporated loan-level analysis of the mortgage pool through its Residential Asset Loss Model (REALM), an examination of the results from third-party loan file due diligence, cash flow modeling analysis of the transaction’s payment structure, reviews of key transaction parties and an assessment of the transaction’s legal structure and documentation. This analysis is further described in our U.S. RMBS Rating Methodology.
