"The strong market reception continued for Velocity’s second securitization of 2021, and we are very pleased with the execution we achieved on this transaction," said Executive Vice President of Capital Markets, Jeff Taylor. "Velocity's proven business model and the solid performance of our securitizations helped maintain high investor demand that drove spreads tighter by over 9 basis points as compared to our 2021-1 transaction and resulted in a weighted average coupon of 1.75%. Because we strongly believe in the quality of our loans and the capabilities of our special servicing team, we will retain at least 5% of this transaction as we have done with our prior securitizations."

The Certificates are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. The Certificates may only be offered and sold in the United States in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Certificates in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful under the laws of such jurisdiction.
