What do people think of the £6m bridge coming up in February?
Interest retained at drawdown, so possibly worth a punt provided you can move it on before term?
This loan is so much larger than anything AC have done before that I'm concerned about how easy/difficult it might be to sell parts on the SM. Perhaps AC's institutional investors will be happy to take a large chunk of this loan and keep it for the duration. If not, I'd expect there to be a lot of this loan available for a fair while. (Even if the QAA were able to take on a huge chunk of it, the QAA would want to reduce its holdings as new loans came along, and that could mean a steady supply of parts being released for resale.) Anyone wanting to liquidate their position may find there are a lot of other investors trying to do the same. And with such a large supply, I'd think that anyone wanting to invest would be able to obtain all the parts they want reasonably early on so, unless they decide they want to increase their position, there won't be a huge number of buyers later.

Does anyone have sufficient knowledge of the appropriate applicable planning / preservation rules in that part of the world to know whether the fact that the 'old' version of the primary property that is within the same grounds is a scheduled monument has any potential impact that we should be considering ?

AC got away the £3.3mm care home last year ... Isn't that the loan that AC had to offer cashback on in order to entice lenders to transfer their investments from a previous loan to the same borrower that was being replaced by the current loan? (I can't check that out at the moment because the AC website says it "is temporarily unavailable while we perform essential maintenance.")

The one where we all had our dictionaries out because simultaneously and contemporaneously turned out to mean a month apart and the 1% was less of an incentive than expected.

What was the other word that eventually come out, something like coterminous?

If your name is Eccles you can shut up!If it isn't, don't shut up. If you understand all that, it dates you!! ( errr ... and me!)  Guess I'm sufficiently dated too. All is now clear. You're really Neddie Seagoon in a cunning disguise and I expect you keep your bananas loaded!  More like Dennis "no more curried eggs for me" Bloodnok!

Well my money is on it shifting quickly (literally). I think the drought has gone on for long enough that AC have £6m of cash waiting. With "10,000 lenders on the books," that's only £600 per lender on the books. Sure, some of those will have signed up and never used the platform, but many will also want more than £600 and all the various flavours of underwriters won't release all their funds at once, so I think liquidity won't be a problem.

#230 (S**** W**** Intl. Ltd) has just drawn down. ... and there don't seem to have been a lot of buying orders placed. I put in a £1000 request, thinking I'd be lucky to get £500 because it's a small loan, but I received my full request. I wonder what the maximum allocation was? Have AC turned a corner?

Lower rate loans generally, (and several this week to share our orders) .  + A 12% biggun lying in wait.

So only £40k went to MLIAs, and the maximum allocation was 4% of that.

We saw quite a lot of market activity over the last few days as the £6m was made available for drawdown, but nothing like what I was expecting. My previous prediction that a £6m loan would "free up a lot of decent loans for first time MLIA users" seems to have been unduly optimistic. Sure, you could buy many £k at 9.75% of quite a few wind turbines loans but I was really hoping for loan parts to be available on the market for more than a few hours. Until that happens any new investor with more than £10k to invest will be put off as they'll rightly worry that it'll take too long to get a decent return. So well done to AC for pulling off the biggest loan yet and let's hope that they can find many more similar loans. Exponential growth is the only way to win the market at this stage but it's really tough to pull off.
