Apologies to you all if there is a thread for this loan but I have entered the search details and nothing is coming up.
This is a loan which should have repaid on 23/12/16 and appears to have had receivers appointed in February 2019. Can anyone explain to a simple soul such as myself why it took FS well over 2 years after the loan ended for them to appoint receivers. I really would like to know - however based on the length of time the powerboat loan has been active I assume they may be taking what is very speedy action for them. According to the update on 21/5/19 the receivers are only now collating a formal report and recommendations despite being appointed over 2 months previously. At the speed the receivers are working I would hope that there will be a formal report and recommendations made within about 6 months although 12 months may be more realistic. Am I being overly optimistic?
Based on peoples previous experience is it unrealistic to expect this loan to be settled within the next two years or am I again being hopelessly optimistic? I do recognise that as FS have a track record of having outrageous LTVs, or perhaps I should say a very optimistic LTV (which are rarely received in a fire sale) what percentage of my capital do people think I could receive when the asset is sold?
Any and all thoughts would be appreciated.

If you stop paying your mortgage there are a number of reasons why it can take well over a year before the home is reposessed, none of which is down to the lender being sat on their hands. (opportunity to appeal, government guidance that debt advice is made available, scheduling court appearances etc)
In p2p world, there is often an initial period of time wasted, but once proceedings being in earnest there are still a number of things, such as those listed above, that can slow it down. It's just the way it is.
Reducing the initial wasted time before starting action is however an easy point to consider.

True to some extent, however in this case 3 years is rather pushing it to say the least. Who knows though, perhaps within the decade they'll actually default the loan?

Completely agree, a time frame of 12 months I wouldn't bat an eyelid at, but this is getting daft...

There's a post on Frank which suggest FS may be forced by FCA regs changes into being a lot more transparent come the end of the year which, if accurate (and fundingsecure comply), will have a dramatic impact on default figures quoted.
