It's free and the new website declutters by grouping at loan level

All loans above a 0.8% discount have now sold. I am surprised at the buyers, good for the sellers.

Anyway it's good to see that parts at higher discounts do indeed sell.

1582944115 - farm building at a 0.6% discount looks like a good deal. Also for non-taxpayers Llandudno & Greenwich loans look good, if only I had an IFISA. If you land in Lytham, currently available of the PM, you can buy on the SM at a 0.6% discount. Wallasey also, you can buy the first charge on the SM if you don;t like 2nd charges.
Defiantly worth a look, especially as you will be able to sell the longer dated loans into an IFISA within 2 months and hence won't pay the tax.

"Within two months" actually might stretch -- IIRC we once thought IFISAs would be available in time for the 2016/17 tax year. If the IFISA release is delayed long enough that the loans have less than 30 days remaining -- and thus become unsaleable -- you will have based your decision on a bad assumption.

Some of the loans quoted are 120+, certainly wouldn't risk it with sub 120 day loans and then it's not 100% guaranteed the IFISA will be here in time, but maybe worth the risk.

SM seems very quiet so I wonder if money is being moved off ready to go into ISAs. I was selling most days until about 10 days ago since when I have sold nothing despite parts having an indicative rate >20%. I've sold 5 bits in the last couple of days including the Endurance boat.

My sense is that the launch of the FS IFISA has already had a fair impact on SM availability and "best effective rate" prices. However it's hard to know for certain without tracking over time.
For interest, as of 12.30pm today, there are £490k of parts available on the SM in loans with a "best effective rate" of at least 13% (although inevitably a good proportion will be at lower rates than that). Breaking that down:
13%+ £490k 14%+ £370k 15%+ £275k 16%+ £170k 17%+ £110k 18%+ £62k 19%+ £49k 20%+ £0

Parts available with an effective rate above 20% do seem to have become a rarity. That wouldn't surprise me if the PM was relatively empty but, since that isn't the case at the moment, I'd have to agree that this likely is the result of demand for parts for IFISAs.

The top end SM effective rates have been steadily going down since IFISAs were opened last week. I'd imagine SM rates will decrease dramatically once cash ISAs start to be transferred into the new IFISAs.

I put parts today for sale with 60 days left at -0.6% and take-up is reasonably quick (nearly 1k sold since late morning).
