    Email received noting that they are increasing their max LTV to 56%.

    Not on everything, automatically, so probably just new loans/tranches.  With an eye to keeping a clean sheet, loss wise.

    Why 56%...my guess is that they currently have an average LTV of 44%, so maybe they want the average to be nearer 50%.

    I'm still happy using them, but we will be emptying our account shortly to part pay a large purchase!!   Been moving my money gradually* into the Easy access account in preparation.



    * By letting my rolling notices go through.  
    How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 2.98% of current retirement "pot" (as at end April 2025)

    56% is because the lending partners lend up to 75% LTV and LP want to be able to lend 75% of that (75% of 75% = 56.25%). See response from Loanpad on the P2PIF here: https://p2pindependentforum.com/post/506838/thread.

    It won't necessarily be restricted to new loans. Topups to existing loans could go up to 56%. 

    The current average LTV across the loanbook is 43.5%. I wouldn't expect this change to push the average over 50%.

    Loanpad have finally got around to launching their new website.

    Question - I used to be able to request a statement for specific dates e.g. the month just gone, which would show interest earned in that month.

    I'm either missing something, or you can only get tax year statements?   

    How do I just get a statement for April 25, as a month on it's own?

    Sorry if the answer should be staring me in the face, but I can't see for looking.

    Thanks

    You can set the start and end dates for the Tax Statement and generate a report. Does this suffice? I can't test it at the moment as I'm on my mobile, which won't open the generated report.

    I tried that, but I couldn't seem to get the start date of 1st April 2025.

    Will try again next time I log in.

    Ah, you're correct. I hadn't spotted that. I assume that it is an oversight. Drop Loanpad CS a line and I'm sure they will fix it. They've been very quick to respond to my requests.

    I asked on chat and apparently you have to select the END date first, then it lets you choose the start date!!!

    That works, but seems a bit back to front, I've suggested they raise it with the development team 😉

    Maybe you could update the P2P forum (I've never got round to joining 😉)
