SCHEDULE 13D
	Page 8 of 11 Pages

Item 1. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations

Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 1”) is being filed by the undersigned, pursuant to §240.13d-1(a), with respect to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Front Yard Residential Corporation (the “Issuer”), whose principal executive offices are 5100 Tamarind Reef, Christiansted, United States Virgin Islands 00820. This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 20, 2020 (collectively, the “Schedule 13D”).  

Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.  Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meanings given them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(c) Deer Park serves as investment adviser to the STS Master Fund and, in such capacity, exercises voting and investment power over the Shares held in the account for the STS Master Fund. DPRM is the general partner of Deer Park. Each of DPRC and AgateCreek is a member of DPRM. Mr. Craig-Scheckman is the Chief Executive Officer of each of Deer Park and DPRC and the majority owner of DPRC. Mr. Burg is the Chief Investment Officer of Deer Park and the sole member of AgateCreek. Set forth in Annex A to the original Schedule 13D, filed February 20, 2020, are the names, business address, present principal occupation or employment and citizenship of each director and executive officer of DPRC.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

The funds used for the purchase of the Shares reported herein by the Reporting Persons were the working capital of the STS Master Fund, which may have included margin account borrowings made in the ordinary course of business.  In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account, which may exist from time to time. Because other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Shares reported herein.  A total of approximately $5,218,183.90, including commissions, was paid to acquire the Shares reported in Item 5(c) of this Amendment No. 1.

Item 5. Interest in the Securities of the Issuer

Item 5(a), (b), and (c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

(a) As of the date hereof, each of Deer Park, DPRM, DPRC, Mr. Craig-Scheckman, and AgateCreek and Mr. Burg may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 6,749,859 Shares held for the account of STS Master Fund (approximately 12.5% of the total number of Shares outstanding).

SCHEDULE 13D
	Page 9 of 11 Pages

(b) The beneficial ownership percentage is based on a total of 54,112,374Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2020, as disclosed in the Issuer’s press release, dated May 4, 2020 filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC (as defined herein) on May 5, 2020.

(c) Except for the transactions listed in Exhibit E hereto, all of which were effected in the open market through a broker, there have been no transactions in the Shares by the Reporting Persons since the Schedule 13D was filed with the SEC on February 20, 2020.

Item 7. Material to Be Filed as Exhibits

Item 7 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:
