Review of the CrowdProperty, Peer to Business Lending:

A very trusted lender

Excellent service from a company that provides property finance by property people with speed, ease, certainty, expertise and total transparency. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2022

Time and care are needed to avoid losses

With time and care it is possible to achieve close to the advertised returns on CrowdProperty but the platform requires more care on behalf of the investor, to ensure proper diversification and to prevent over exposure to any single project, than other comparable platforms. The quality of loans is not high and overexposure to a bad loan can affect your overall return significantly. Also, the lack of a secondary market necessitates long-term commitment.

Concerning lending experiences with Crowdproperty UK

I have had a deeply concerning lending experience with CrowdProperty. This property investment platform currently shows an alarming 83% default rate across my loan portfolio, with many of these defaults being over TWO YEARS OVERDUE! The company's approach to managing defaults is notably negligent. Their communication with investors is highly inadequate, with updates being infrequent and lacking substance compared to other platforms. The rare updates provided, typically quarterly, offer very little meaningful information about recovery efforts. CrowdProperty's operational focus seems to heavily favour borrowers over lenders. This is evident in the company's management presentations and social media presence, where there is frequent emphasis on satisfying borrowers. Lenders are hardly ever even mentioned. This bias is reflected in CrowdProperty's lenient approach to pursuing defaulting borrowers, compromising lenders' interests. They keep extending loans, often for years, with little regard for lenders' money not being returned. The platform's statistics page shows concerning trends. Lending amounts to each individual borrower, loan-to-value ratios, and default rates have consistently increased year on year. Very worrying. The statistics page reveals that an alarming 45 projects are now in default, and this number continues to rise. In December 2024, investors suffered multi-million-pound losses on two loans, which returned only about a quarter of the capital invested! Currently, a significant portion of my life savings remains inaccessible in defaulted loans on CrowdProperty. The company's indifference to this situation is deeply troubling. Based on my experience and the numerous similar complaints from lenders on Trustpilot and other platforms, I strongly advise potential investors to exercise extreme caution. CrowdProperty's commitment to recovering funds from borrowers and repaying lenders in a timely manner seems highly questionable at best! Reviewed on: 21st January 2025

Loss of capital invested

Overall, poor experience with this platform. The returns offered to investors (currently 8-9%) are not good enough given the high LTV of loans and the significant loss of invested capital on defaulted loans. I would advise others not to invest on this platform. Reviewed on: 31st December 2024

4 years and still great returns

I have been lending money on Crowd Property now for 4 years and have had great returns on my investment. I trust the people who run it 100%. There have been issues along the way with investments but the people at CrowdProperty stepped in to take over these projects to make sure that investors got the returns back they were promised. Reviewed on: 4th March 2023
