This article is for subscribers only.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. agreed to sell Litton Loan Servicing LP to Ocwen Financial Corp. for $263.7 million in cash, ending the New York-based bank’s 3-1/2 year experiment in processing home-loan payments.
In addition to the cash payment, which may be adjusted at closing, Ocwen will pay about $337.4 million to retire some of Litton’s debt, according to a filing by West Palm Beach, Florida-based Ocwen. The sale of Litton comes two months after Goldman Sachs wrote down the value of the mortgage-servicing business by about $200 million.
