The data behind the platform - 2024 update

24 Apr 2024 - Comment
Updated for April 2024

Our 2023 post looking into platform data was one of the most popular of the year, so one year on we bring you the latest data.

Since March 2017 LandlordInvest has completed a total of 115 loans (including tranches of the same loan) with a value of £18,407,316. To date 92 have been repaid in full and 23 are currently active.

A lot takes place behind the scenes to deliver these headline statistics. 343,259 unique transactions, for example.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Mondays are the busiest day of the week for transactions being processed at LandlordInvest with 31.6% of all historic transactions having been processed on a Monday.

There have been 6,080 deposits totalling £15,064,507 (an average of £2,477) and the largest single deposit was £300,000. 11,257 withdrawals totalling £13,037,283 (an average of £1,158) have been made with the largest being larger than £300,000.

This does not include ISA related transactions such as Transfer In or Transfer Out.

We’ve paid an impressive £2,083,064 in interest to investors through 114,884 unique interest payments (an average of £18.13 per investment per month). The largest single interest payment made to an investor was nearly £6,000.

13,204 unique investments totalling £24,436,235 (including primary and secondary market investments) were made in loans, an average investment of £1,851. The number of unique investments held in Standard or IFISA accounts is always changing due to our very active secondary market, but at the time of writing slightly more belonged to IFISA accounts, 52.8% vs 47.2% in Standard accounts.

The largest single investment made by a Standard account was more than £330,000 and the largest in an IFISA was more than £50,000.

7,145 investments were made when loans were first funded, and 6,059 were purchased through the secondary market by accounts that didn’t already hold an investment in that loan.

The majority of investment has been in bridging loans - 92.7% by loan amount. Buy to let and Development loans are responsible for 3.18% and 4.49% of the loan book, respectively.

The largest single investment in a bridging loan was nearly £350,000 and in a Buy to let was almost £35,000.

Development loans are often split into tranches, with each tranche funded separately which may explain the largest single investment in a development loan being lower at just over £20,000.

There have been 10,552 sales on the secondary market with a value totalling £5,921,549 (an average of £561) and the largest single sale was for £56,725.

At the time of writing, the total account value (cash plus investments) for all accounts is £4,086,358. The average account value is £4,870. Standard accounts had an average of £2,536 and IFISA accounts had an average of £14,195.

Data correct as of 23 April 2024.
