I have just seen the Reinvest Dividends option button, so I have turned that on. Anyone else using this?

I'm quite well spread out through PP's offerings. At the moment my negative 'latest valuation gains' value is:
- much smaller than the dividends I've recieved
- marginally bigger than the 'realised capital gains' I got from pre-ordering more of a property than I wanted and selling for small profit (can't really do this these days)
- roughly half of the 'promotions ' I've recieved
- much smaller than the 'discounts on purchase'
- much less than the 'transaction costs paid'.
So thus far I'm in the black overall. I consider the 'realised capital gains' and 'discounts on purchase' fairly meaningless until the end of term anyway, at which point it's only worth exiting if there's a gain IMO.

Personally I either withdraw dividends or top up one of my other properties that looks good value at the time that I'm happy to hold more of. I wouldn't want to automatically buy more of a property that's selling at a premium to the estimated value and/or the original list price.

Interested in others thoughts on PP and proeprty crowdfunding in general. I also have property investment trusts.
At present I have 4K invested with property parnter and interested what others have invested with PP, I have a view to increase my holding which I started this year.
I quite like the platform set up and dividends have been paid on time each month. While the investments are in SPV's and ring fenced, does anyone have any thoughts on the stability of property partner?
(It certainly is not a P2P Collateral gong show set up which I am in but thoughts more on the future of property partner more)
I see it as a way of getting BTL exposure, without the hassles of being a landlord with a single property, but will be adding to my other S&S investments and IT's etc this would be an addiional string.
I have found it interesting how some of the US FIRE bloggers are using property crowdfunding States side. Interested in others thoughts on PP / property crowdfunding as part of a wider portfolio and pleased to find a forum on PP here.
Thanks.
-------------------------- I have about 25k invested. Same thoughts as you, main worry is platform failure and the 5 yr mechanism. hence have also got funds in some mortgage backed loans on other platforms. I like the option of built in gearing with out the hassle of getting a mortgage.

Good points I was carrying dividends over into new buys previous, I have re-thought after your post and turned it off now and will either top up or add to new listings I buy into. Thanks for your input

That is a fair chunk invested, the concept is great, it is platform failure is the biggest concern, I am in the Collertal one and don't fancy another repeat of a failure. I don't think I will let PP get ahead of my REIT's and kind of keep it in line with REIT holdings. I am not interested at the moment in getting into mortgages either in BTL so the concept suits for this. I hold 3 REIT's so far with around 12K in them.
