I think that most people will list the parts continuously at par and some offer parts at a discount when there is a better opportunity to recycle the capital, or one is expected. Personally I have never experienced the end of a term yet, but I do expect to in a few months..

I have to confess I go for a big discount as soon as the loan is accepted, aiming to shift the lot in a couple of hours and before more parts and bigger discounts appear. Works so far!
I will not, of course, be sniffing at the 7.5% loan just appeared.

I usually list at par then go to 0.5% discount when more cb comes along. This has worked previously but recently 0.5% isnt enough to sell much quickly on newer property loans.
I don't plan on discounting much further than that though; but I might change my mind when it's not long from term; I don' want to hold too much in RBR loans.

I keep everything that had cashback up for sale at par, and it trickles away, even stickier loans like Cheshire will get chipped away at. I don't buy more than I'm happy to keep to term so sales are a bonus but so far I haven't had to hold anything to term.

They may take 6-12 months to sell at par (especially if Fancy Crowdfunders are trying to unload a bunch of their own, also at par), but that's not really an issue, unless you are really into high speed churning.

Thanks Peperpot, so you could presumably leave loans for sale permanently and still recieve interest payments? Hmmm, might shift some of my low interest auto bids i bought befor i grew wise to the SM

Yep, and a useful approach is to re-list them at a 0.1% lower mark-up than last time (if you can remember what that was). Or some more aggressive revaluation approach. Listing a 12% A at 3% mark-up and leaving it there forever is (or would be, if it was allowed) a recipe for getting stuck with it if rates move against you over the long haul (and the buyer rate gets lower and lower as there are fewer repayments remaining).

SM loans expire after "up to" 2 weeks. They expire at 2 weeks. They [can] also expire if the loan becomes due for a payment (it becomes not-for-sale and not-saleable, until the payment clears). It then is NOT returned to the market, you have to relist it. And yes eddie you can try and leave loan parts dangling continuously to see who bites. I do ...

I have multiple parts on sale which have had payments made and none of them have been automatically delisted before the payment. Does that mean False Conveyancing is pulling the wool over my eyes and I have to manually delist & relist after each payment (or the loan wont show on the SM)? Actually I sold a part today, the day after it made its interest payment, and didnt have to relist it. Or does that not apply to interest only property loans just amortizing SME loans?

I've had a fair few I've noticed have stayed on beyond their payment date too, and I've not even been selling that long. Maybe they only drop out if they stay in "processing" too long?

It then is NOT returned to the market, you have to relist it. You cannot rely on this behaviour (but need to be aware of it if you were expecting all loan parts to remain listed for the full 2 weeks). If the payment has already cleared before the payment due date, the system can process the repayment immediately, without removing the loan parts from sale.

Hey, this is Furious Confusion we are talking about - you can't rely on ANYTHING. Dates, times, loan amounts, names .. anything you can think of .. has to be regarded as fluid and checked at every opportunity (bid amounts being less than the loan total, cancelled loans showing 0% bid, cashback remaining as originally stated, I could go on for hours about things not happening like you would expect, as was promised on the tin, or as any sensible person would organise it). Listing of loan parts (when, if and for how long) definitely falls into that category.
