Redwood Trust, Inc. is a specialized financial enterprise operating across the United States, managing its activities through three distinct divisions. Its Residential Mortgage Banking segment functions as a conduit, sourcing residential home loans from various third-party originators. These loans are then either sold, converted into securities, or incorporated into Redwood Trust's own investment portfolio. This division also utilizes derivative financial instruments to mitigate risks associated with these residential loans.

Similar to the residential segment, these are subsequently securitized, sold, or added to the company's investment holdings. Finally, the Investment Portfolio segment deploys capital into a diverse array of assets. This includes securities retained from its own residential and business purpose securitization efforts, as well as residential and smaller multifamily bridge loans. The company also invests in residential mortgage-backed securities issued by other entities, Freddie Mac K-Series multifamily loan securitizations, reperforming loan securitizations, servicer advance investments, home equity investments, and various other housing-related assets. Qualifying as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) for federal tax purposes, Redwood Trust, Inc. commits to distributing at least 90% of its taxable income as dividends to its shareholders. The company was established in 1994 and maintains its headquarters in Mill Valley, California.
