TOPICS: Lendy (formerly Saving Stream)
Oh, and in other news, the steel-framed office block valued at £2,870,000, on the market for £1,250,000, but purchased two and a half years ago for £875,000, has not received any offers according to the latest update.0 -
I've not put any new money into Lendy for a while now, and reading some of the comments here has made me nervous so I thought I'd try and reduce my holding.
However my "negative balance" is quite high. I'm not too sure how this works. I thought that prefunding that isn't taken up is cancelled within 48 hours. But what I think is happening now is that any of my sales on the SM are being allocated to other investments to reduce the negative balance, so effectively I can't reduce my exposure easily. There are far cleverer people on here than I am... does this sound correct? Or is there anything I can do? (I did change my prefunding allocation to zero several weeks ago).0 -

The Trouble loan amount in £s is roughly the same. It's not really improving, they are just adding more loans. Would really need to see this value come down before I would reinvest with Lend tbh.0

Things look to have stabilised at SS, I will only post new updates if there's a big change in the ratios. Not sure it's serving much purpose but at least it gives some historic perspective.

I've been keeping an eye on p2pindeoendentforum and as you say things appear to have improved. Some large repayments and the defaults reduced and potentially improved.
Personally happy with Moneything, Ablrate and collateral, and most of those platforms are scaling up with apparently better due diligence. The flip side at Lendy is that whilst deal flows keep on coming the valuation reports are often questionable, the newer loans are starting to head below 10% in several cases and the risk that the outstanding defaults could leave to platform failure.0 -
