Interesting one. On the face of it, good people buggered by the banks and their tame consultants again. (Unless they are hiding something.)
I'm happy to put in my (small) contribution.

Proof if ever of the adage, 'if you can't do it, teach it and if you can't teach it, advise on it'.
Care homes are an area that I am very wary of as they can be very susceptible to local authority budgets and state imposed requirements be they performance or structural based. As well as getting an undeserved bad reputation through hearsay put about by relatives of residents who have an axe to grind, which can adversely affect the taking on of new residents. The other issue is that valuations tend to assume that the property is not the cause of the business failing, locally we have seen care homes closing because it has not structurally and thus commercially viable to make the necessary modifications to meet statutory requirements, with the result that once on the market they have very much sold based on and at their underlying land value.

This sounds like the infamous RBS restructuring operation getting their comeuppance (correction, the RBS shareholders getting the comeuppance). It's not completely clear but it sounds like RBS have actually lost getting on for £1M as a result of their shenanigans.

( THIS POST might be one reason why they decided to clear their books)

CQC gives the rating of meeting all standards. The new system whereby CQC giving a comparative grade is not yet in place. Their satisfaction rating is higher than they had before. I was impressed that they had a dedicated activities Co-ordinator something some homes see as non productive because they are not actively involved in the personal care of residents. Places I have seen that use these tend to be more thoughtful homes with a more positive atmosphere. The remarks from users staff and relatives were generally very good, there were one or two criticisms but nothing that sounded alarm bells. Much of the improvement I think comes from the current manager, although I must confess some of this is embedded in the credit report so that might have influenced my thoughts. I live close by, under 15 miles away and can also confirm there is some affluence in the area. I have been involved with another service provider in p2p terms lately and only did my DD after investment, silly I know but with this one CQC was my first port of call. This offering is streets ahead of my other investment which fingers crossed will be ended soon.
Hope this helps.

I wonder if the likely redemption of at least one bridging loan scheduled for this week has had an effect? Putting a bit back into people's accounts.

Putting a bit back into people's accounts. It's more than just "a bit"! The one bridging loan that we were told to expect a settlement this week -- though the week is just about over and an update has been promised for later today -- was for over £2M. A critical question for AC is... How much of that will stay within AC and how much will be withdrawn?
