Newly Originated Loan: A Loan of any type that has just been made and just closed. The originating Broker/Company may have funded the Investor in at the closing, or the Broker/Company may have funded the loan themselves and will assign (or sell) the note to an Investor later.

Spread:  On a Newly Originated Loan the originating Broker/Company may have a Note Rate on the Loan and a Sold Rate to the Investor/Lender. For example the note was originated at a Note Rate of 12% and is being sold to the Investor/Lender at a Sold Rate of 11% with the Broker/Company keeping 1% as additional monthly compensation (known as a Spread). The Broker/Company will typically continue to monitor the loan and provide guidance to the Investor/Lender. The borrower payments are disbursed to the Investor/Lender minus the Spread, and the Spread is disbursed to the Broker/Originator minus the Spread Disbursement Fee of $15. The Loan Servicing Fee is taken out of either the Investor/Lender disbursement orthe Broker/Originator Spread Disbursement, as instructed at Loan Setup.
