Debt Disclosure [Abstract]  
WAREHOUSE AND OTHER LINES OF CREDIT WAREHOUSE AND OTHER LINES OF CREDIT
At June 30, 2022, the Company was a party to 14 revolving lines of credit with lenders providing $9.9 billion of warehouse and securitization facilities. The facilities are used to fund, and are secured by, residential mortgage loans held for sale. The facilities are repaid using proceeds from the sale of loans. Interest is generally payable monthly in arrears or on the repurchase date of a loan, and outstanding principal is payable upon receipt of loan sale proceeds or on the repurchase date of a loan. Outstanding principal related to a particular loan must also be repaid after the expiration of a contractual period of time or, if applicable, upon the occurrence of certain events of default with respect to the underlying loan. Interest expense is recorded to interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations. The base interest rates on the facilities bear interest at 30-day LIBOR, or other alternative base rate such as SOFR, plus a margin. Some of the facilities carry additional fees charged on the total line amount, commitment fees charged on the committed portion of the line, and non-usage fees charged when monthly usage falls below a certain utilization percentage. As of June 30, 2022, the interest rate was comprised of the applicable base rate plus a spread ranging from 1.02% to 2.25%. The base interest rate for warehouse facilities is subject to increase based upon the characteristics of the underlying loans collateralizing the lines of credit, including, but not limited to product type and number of days held for sale. The warehouse lines are scheduled to expire through 2023 under one or two year terms. The securitization facilities are scheduled to expire through 2024 under two to three year terms. All warehouse lines and other lines of credit are subject to renewal based on an annual credit review conducted by the lender.

Certain warehouse line lenders require the Company to maintain cash accounts with minimum required balances at all times. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was $7.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively, held in these accounts which are recorded as a component of restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.

Under the terms of these warehouse lines, the Company is required to maintain various financial and other covenants. As of June 30, 2022, the Company amended certain warehouse lines related to certain profitability covenants, following which the Company was in compliance with those financial covenants.
