I have some reservations that anyone can price the MBS regardless of who acts as the sales agent. Shear numbers rule out auctions or negotiated sales at any price. Thus the working capital to buy the mortgages in will not turn over unless buyers want the mortgages (or houses, assuming they can match deeds, notes and mortgages which are often not locatable.
