LPA Receiver Services and Property Debt Advisory
While the full impact of Covid-19 is still unknown it is inevitable that there will be an increase in distressed debt in the property sector. When a borrower gets into difficulty early intervention by an experienced professional will minimise the lender’s loss.
In these situations, often the quickest and most cost-effective route to recovering the loan is through the appointment of an LPA | Fixed-Charge Receiver who has a range of enforcement procedures at their disposal. Some appointments are inevitable, however early engagement can identify problem areas which, if addressed, turn projects around and avoid the need for a formal appointment.
