- New York Mortgage Trust, Inc. is a real estate investment trust (REIT) specializing in acquiring, investing in, financing, and managing mortgage-related assets primarily within the United States. The company’s core products and services include residential loans such as business purpose loans; structured multi-family property investments including preferred equity and mezzanine loans to owners of multi-family properties; non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS); agency RMBS; commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS); single-family rental properties; and other mortgage, residential housing, and credit-related assets. The firm also operates a mortgage warehouse lending program to provide short-term financing to mortgage originators, thereby enhancing its access to whole loans and non-agency RMBS.
Recently, New York Mortgage Trust completed the acquisition of the remaining 50% ownership stake in Constructive Loans, LLC, a significant originator of business purpose loans for real estate investors, which expands its presence in residential credit markets and scales recurring earnings through integration of this leading operating platform. The company has also undergone a corporate rebrand to Adamas Trust, Inc., reflecting strategic shifts in its mortgage market focus. Additionally, it has expanded its portfolio significantly by acquiring approximately $1.5 billion in Agency RMBS and nearly $400 million in residential loans, and completed senior notes offerings and residential loan securitizations generating substantial net proceeds. These moves align with NYMT’s long-term strategy of diversifying its investment portfolio and increasing recurring income streams.
Founded in 1997 and headquartered in New York, New York Mortgage Trust targets investments across various residential and commercial mortgage assets, serving real estate investors and mortgage originators with a focus on risk-adjusted returns through active portfolio management blending quantitative analytics and credit underwriting. The firm operates both directly and through subsidiaries, with a strategic emphasis on business purpose loans for rental and transitional property financing, multi-family property credit products, and structured finance segments.
This combination of mortgage asset classes, capital deployment strategies, and recent strategic acquisitions positions New York Mortgage Trust as a diversified player in the U.S. mortgage investment space with a growing emphasis on residential business purpose lending and structured multi-family property investments. The company’s operational and financial developments over the last two years reflect a significant expansion and repositioning within the mortgage finance sector.
