The initial purchase price is $1,150,000, subject to working capital adjustments, plus contingency payments of up to $1,350,000 payable over the next 12 months.

C. Thomas McMillen, HOMS Chairman and CEO, stated, “Completion of this transaction and the Default Servicing transaction we previously announced represent a big step forward in immediately expanding our presence nationwide in this new line of business.” McMillen continued, “The extensive experience of both management teams increases our ability to reach new customers and provide current customers with enhanced default and title products and services.”

Trevor Stoffer, the CEO of Timios, Inc., went on to say, “Timios has come a long way in a short period of time.
