On CH he was listed as banned from directorships until Sept 2015 (according to another forum). But I can't find sources to confirm that yet. It is discussed specifically on a Hull forum. PM me if you would like reference to this. Companycheck has him taking up new appointments on 20th July 2015. Maybe we should be asking savingstream to clarify if they can. It maybe that his ban was lifted at some point. Like I say this was just information from another forum from when the ban was first put in place. I can't find much else but it might be worth us digging further!

PM me if you would like reference to this. I've tried finding more info via CH but I'm not sure it has historic data. The Disqualified Directors Search isnt working and just giving me every name under the sun. Might be worth someone else searching his name to see if there is historic data there. I think I'll still take a decent chunk of this loan as the security is still good and PP looks likely. I (and others) also noted that, but I didn't put it in my overview because it's not on any of the official sources (only a couple of forums and a Wikipedia page). However, I do believe to be true; just need to find the proper source to confirm. I think that is sensible until we can confirm with a good source. I will keep looking too.

The decision to allocate this £4.8m loan "bottom up" suggests that the days of the BHs gaming the pre-funding system are firmly behind us! Might SS be concerned that there isn't enough pent-up demand to fill the £4.8M loan? Perhaps not, as allocating by the percentage model would encourage people to bid more than they really want, and that would help SS fill the loan -- until they find that investors hadn't expected such a large allocation percentage and start reneging on their commitments. Do people think that there will be some of this one left for the SM after all the pre-funding requests are met in full? If so, any guesses as to how much? If there isn't going to be anything left over, would anyone care to guess what the maximum allocation amount will be? Since this is a PBL, I suppose my next question should be unnecessary, but have savingstream actually said that they're going to fund the whole £4.8M in the beginning, rather than releasing the loan in stages?

Really not sure whether I want to be in this or not. I'm guessing that means I don't.

Really not sure whether I want to be in this or not. I'm guessing that means I don't. As mentioned before by others, I think the main concern here is the value of the land which has had a 70k / acre increase, but the land (along with the new parcel of land) has had no additional benefits since the PBL054 valuation (July 2015). > Rezoning was in place in July 2015 > The flood risk hasn't changed > No additional PP has been approved (or is even pending) > The financial situation in Hull hasn't changed; if anything, I would guess that land value in hull has reduced since Brexit, due to the cold feet of some of the Wind Farm companies. > No additional land clearance or prep has been carried out Hyperpheticly, if the land was worth 130k/ acre, then the security is worth c£5,200,000. That would provide a (hypothetical) LTV @ 92%.

I will most definitely be in, for all the obvious reasons, 12 months loan, interest up front, i will hold for 6 months and then visit the SM, not particularly interested in the borrowers background. cynical? again, most definitely, but i am now of the opinion that whatever SS has to say is to be taken with a pinch of salt.

It must be noted that... 1. The interest held is a chunk of the money that we send 2, A loan can default within its term. Just saying .

This is why i'll not be pre-funding, as we've seen with a couple of loans in the past month, skeletons can fall out of the cupboard when you least expect it, and I think the chances of there being problems with this one far exceed 12%
