I think the £6.7M just represents the institutional investor's stake (land loan £3.5M + dev loan £3.2M).

you what ?
The £2m loan at say 20% would be £400K...and that is before the £5m loan which hopefully will be around 4%
This chap is clearly a high roller with companies and loans all over the place although I can see nothing to indicate £400m in net assets. I guess the institutional lender has hit his limit and FS is a second top-up loan as the recent market is going against him. Sadly I don't develop at this level but this still strikes me as ambitious - if we take £3k per m2 that is well over £1m and although should give a fantastic house but what happens if he goes over budget ...Even in this area £16m seems a tad high at it is 40K per m2 - you could buy most of Burnley for that!
This one may come good but I am not risking it - in a years time the market may well be flat or decreasing due to Brexit or it could be taking off...

The VR is dated 11th April 2018, and has presumably been re-addressed to FS. Section 11 states "Tenure - Unencumbered freehold with vacant possession on completion", and was presumably commissioned by the borrower prior to the purchase as evidence when negotiating the price to be paid.*
According to land registry records the price paid for both titles in May 2018 was marginally under the VR figure (and hence £250k+ lower than stated by FS in the listing, which may therefore include some costs.)
Marketing of these appeared to start off with an asking price in 8 figures ( ! ) ... but seems to have ended at c. £1m above the price paid, a 14% discount on asking price.
EDIT to add:
* = being charitable ! Otherwise the VR figure is conveniently the same as the price the borrower agreed to pay ....

I was interested in this loan when it was under "opportunities"...
Now I read that out of a £8.7M loans, FS is ranking behind the £6.7M from institution?
It really reads like a 2nd charge out of 80% LTV???
It feels like a very risky loan with high chance of not getting any money back.
I'm out.

This chap is clearly a high roller with companies and loans all over the place although I can see nothing to indicate £400m in net assets. I'm guessing much of that is the paper wealth of shareholdings, which themselves may well be predominately in (tech) startup companies / unquoted equity. Now I read that out of a £8.7M loans, FS is ranking behind the £6.7M from institution? [...] It feels like a very risky loan with high chance of not getting any money back. Or put another way ... it doesn't feel like a loan that should really be on offer to retail investors (or at least not without some enhanced risk warning.)
And yet of the bids made in the first 6.5 hrs there is 1 x £5k, 1 x £3k and 3 x £1k (totalling £11k) with all the rest (totalling £14k) sub £1k bids.

Also 12 months without monthly interest run is not a good model for risky loans like this.

fundingsecure - it would be helpful if you could clarify the repayment ranking for accrued interest. i.e. does the institution's accruing interest (& fees etc) rank ahead of, or behind the FS capital (of £1.7m-£2m)

Looks like a nice safe bet to me, for the "first charge" holder and the HNW borrower who would be magically skint if it came down to it.For lenders, not so much. Yea, I truly am cynical these days.

They seem to be making a concerted effort recently to get tougher with overdue loans, but the fruits of those labours (if any) will likely take a while to materialise.
