Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Reporting Segment Reporting
At June 30, 2025, the Company’s reportable segments include (i) mortgage-related assets and (ii) Lima One. The Corporate column in the table below primarily consists of corporate cash and related interest income, investments in loan originators and related economics, general and administrative expenses not directly attributable to Lima One, interest expense on unsecured senior notes (see Note 6), securitization issuance costs, and preferred stock dividends. The Company’s segments are managed by its “chief operating decision maker” or “CODM” as defined under GAAP; the Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM utilizes the segment reporting as part of their analysis of relative segment performance in deciding where to focus resources to enhance the Company’s future performance.

The following tables summarize segment financial information, which in total reconciles to the same data for the Company as a whole:

their collateral, based on the relative carrying values of the financed assets.
