Figure completes $717 million acquisition of Kiavi, adding over $7 billion in tokenized loans

According to Cryptopolitan, Figure Technology Solutions officially completed its $717 million acquisition of U.S. residential real estate lending institution Kiavi on September 1. The transaction consists of two parts: Figure's acquisition of Kiavi's technology and operations platform, and the establishment of a joint venture with Sixth Street to take over the loan assets. The actual cash consideration paid by Figure was approximately $590 million, primarily financed through the issuance of $600 million in 8.5 percent senior notes maturing in 2031. Following the acquisition, Kiavi is expected to add over $7 billion in annual primary mortgage volume to Figure Connect, with more than $100 million flowing into Figure's on-chain lending platform, Democratized Prime, each month. Kiavi will also bring technological assets such as an AI-driven property valuation engine and automated document review capabilities, becoming the first deployment scenario for Adaptor, Figure's intelligent agent product. Kiavi CEO Arvind Mohan will step into the role of Chief Business Officer at Figure, overseeing platform integration efforts.
