Beeline's originations increased by $46M in 2024, up 38% - versus industry growth of 9%

Providence, Rhode Island--(Newsfile Corp. - April 8, 2025) - Beeline Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BLNE), an emerging fintech mortgage lender, announced that its 2024 growth in origination volume outpaced the broader industry by 29%.

According to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), total U.S. mortgage originations reached $1.79 trillion in 2024, signaling a market recovery after a steep decline in 2022. Since the market bottomed out in Q4 2022, Beeline has delivered strong momentum, averaging nearly 20% revenue growth per quarter through Q4 2024.

Beeline launched in the second half of 2020 and ended its first full year of operations in 2021 with $7.8 million in revenue. Shortly after, interest rates began rising in October 2021, triggering the current mortgage downturn and driving industry revenues to 30-year lows (excluding the 2008 crisis). Despite macro headwinds, Beeline's revenue grew 33.5% in 2024 compared to 2023.

"Our timing wasn't ideal, but we've built the company to withstand volatility," said Nick Liuzza, Co-founder and CEO of Beeline. "We caught a favorable market to close out 2021, but like the rest of the industry, we were hit by rising rates and a shortage of single-family homes. The difference is—we didn't slow down. We kept building software, expanded our product suite, and diversified our lending capabilities. Now we're positioned to move quickly. With rates coming down last week, our timing as a public company seems excellent."

With 30-year mortgage rates expected to end 2025 at around 5.9%, according to the MBA's baseline forecast, Beeline anticipates strong market conditions over the next several years and believes it is poised for accelerated growth through 2027.
