Any theories as to why these two loans are staying doggedly short of filling by only a few %?
Are there a significant number of possible investors away for the school holidays or getting in the last bit of skiing perhaps?

Just waiting on March repayments/interest to come in, that'll take care of it. I guess we are short of new investors over the holiday season too.

If no new loans come to fruition over next 1-2 weeks, the interest payments will most likely gulp the overflow in the SM that's been persistent for last few days. Always the case with SS where you get these recurring cycles.

My excuse is that some months ago I started to invest a certain proportion of my portfolio in SS and in the last few weeks I've been getting very close to that limit and I have little more to invest than the monthly interest and maturing loans provide.

I am sat here holding funds to invest and the SM is not attractive at the moment ;

Yes, there's a fair amount of residual on the market but then thats not the first time huge loans havent vanished in days. Both loans are actually pretty liquid with hardly any lender parts on the market. Similar predictions were made about Huddersfield less than a month ago. £1m interest will have an impact as will the Easter holidays on anything else coming through the pipeline.

It will be interesting to watch next week, when interest goes in, how the SM moves, i'm not so sure that the watford job will move much with new interest money.

Latest update is the same as the previous update, they are waiting for a new valuation and have been for a while, mid Jan at least. Unfortunately, SS are notoriously inaccurate on their predicitions as solicitors & valuers work to their own time, Watford was supposed to launch end of Feb, Hull late Jan! If it gets a PBL number, get excited otherwise... LTV will probably end up at 70%. Watford has shifted £800k & 500k respectively since launch, some of which will be residual

I think a lot of people are waiting to see what april brings so might clear a bit then
The Hull one has been ready to go for quite a while, it has also been that long in getting to this stage do the companies they had allegedly signed a contract with to rent out part of it still want it as I would guess there would have been a time limit on that. If they no longer want it could be a rather expensive building with nobody wanting it

If they no longer want it could be a rather expensive building with nobody wanting it It has been a long time, i agree, but i think ultimately this is aimed at students, and where student accommodation is concerned, the demand is always growing, and even if some investors feel it may have dragged on a while, there will be plenty of investors in the pipeline, student accommodation is premium investment , if hull can make it work, any city can. (sorry hull) its ok really. Ps. not been there for 15 yrs, so i suppose i do not know really know what i am on about.. but i am from that neck (ish) of the woods.
