The Full Spectrum Division specializes in mortgage lending to borrowers who might not qualify for traditional home loans.
In the first quarter of this year, Countrywide Financial one of the nation's biggest mortgage lenders reported a loss of $893.1 million, much of resulting from the collapse of the market for subprime mortgages.
The Full Spectrum division occupied office space at 4875 Kietzke Lane.
