LendSecured real estate crowdlending platform overview

LendSecured is a real estate crowdlending platform, based in Riga, providing only real estate backed business investment opportunities.

LendSecured was founded by two entrepreneurs, who have built a successful secured lending business in Latvia, specializing in real estate backed lending to businesses. The return they have brought to stakeholders of their business was on average 10% annually. The emergence of technological solutions has inspired the founders to build an investment platform and offer the same lucrative investment opportunities for a wider public.

LendSecured platform was created in 2017, as a private tool for investors, enabling them to monitor their loan portfolios. During these years, the platform has been developing its core business (mortgage lending), gathering experience and building loan portfolios.

Since 2017 the platform was accessible exclusively for high net worth investors, but now they are opening it for the public.

The core pillar and philosophy for LendSecured is to minimize the risks. LendSecured feels responsible for their clients and believes that if investors have trusted them with their funds, then it is their duty to offer the safest possible investment opportunities. In order to minize the risks, LendSecured publish investment projects with low LTV (Loan to Value ratio). The lower the ratio, the lower the risk.

LendSecured benefits from debt collection license (Loan MGMT Ltd.). Besides that, LendSecured is the member of European Crowdfunding Network since 2020.

In order to ensure the security of the clients funds LendSecured has partnered with the prominent payment solution provider Lemonway, which is a Fintech founded in 2007 and regulated by Banque de France. Lemonway is obliged by the regulator to hold all money received on behalf of its clients on a separate account, which is held with BNP Paribas (the largest bank of France by value of assets), thus investors of LendSecured can have a peace of mind, as their funds are held safely on a segregated bank account monitored by French Central Bank. This fact totally excludes the chance of fraud, which recently has occured on other platforms in P2P sector.

Moreover, Lemonway is doing all compliance checks, KYC & AML procedures of all funds credited to LendSecured’s account. This helps LendSecured to speed up the investment process and be assured that they comply with all the latest regulations set up by the EU.

If you invest for the first time at LendSecured don’t forget that you can get  a 0.5% cashback bonus for the investment amount.

Who can invest at LendSecured?

Anyone who is above 18 years old can become a client. To register, you need to submit a copy of your passport or ID document and wait until our team completes your identification process. Once all KYC and AML procedures are done, you can invest!

Every investor must have an opened bank account in the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA).

Investment deals on LendSecured platform

Lendsecured accepts projects with Loan-to-Value (LTV) of 50% on average, maximum reaching 70%. The lower the LTV, the smaller the risk to an investor. The LTV of 50% means that the value of a real estate is as twice as high as the loan amount. This means that in a situation, where the loan ought to be recovered from the sale of the real estate, the value of the real estate will be more than enough to cover the amount lent.

All mortgages can be monitored online on the Land Register of Republic of Latvia: www.zemesgramata.lv.

There are three repayment types that are featured on LendSecured:

  • annuity– where interest is paid monthly together with the loan principal amount spread over the life of the loan.
  • bullet repayment type, the most common type, where borrower makes interest payments monthly, but principal repayment is made in one full payment before the end of the loan maturity.
  • full bullet where there is no interest, nor principal payments during the life of the loan. The sum consisted of entire interest and principal is repaid at the end of the maturity date.

The minimum investment amount on the LendSecured platform is 50 EUR and the average loan term is 12-18 months.

BitOfProperty is on a mission to bring real estate investing closer to people. Due to typically high minimuminvestments, many people are unable to personally invest in real estate as an asset class.

If you invest for the first time at BitOfProperty don’t forget that you can get € 10 signup bonus to make your first investment, more details HERE.

All assets available on BitOfProperty are carefully screened and evaluated internally prior to listing on the platform. During the evaluation, the team of BitOfProperty will assess properties from a technical, financial and also legal point of view. When the criterias are met and support the property to be listed, the investment term period is set and the property is made available on the platform.

Investing

In order to make investments on BitOfProperty platform you need to verify your profile and add funds to your account. If your verification has been approved by the platform, you can go and explore properties listed and start making investments.

All properties are available for browsing on the Properties page. Clicking on a specific property will take you to an individual property page where you can find more detailed information, such as pictures and description, monthly distributions, capital allocation and all other supporting documents for the investment opportunity. BitOfProperty wants to ensure that you have all the necessary information to make an informed decision.

If you decide to invest in a property, make sure you have verified your profile. After successful verification, follow these steps:

1) Top up your Wallet using a wire transfer with at least the amount you would like to invest. Instructions for adding funds can be found in the Wallet page.

2) Invest either in an ongoing crowdfunding campaign or buy available shares the investors are selling from other properties.

There is no minimum investment amount set, as this may vary depending on the lowest share prices available on the market. Also, there is no cap on the maximum investment amount this is dependent on the maximum amount of shares available on the platform.

Before making an investment, you need to transfer money to your account on the platform. Once the money is on your platform account, you can choose a property to invest in. For the crowdfunding deals, the amount invested will be reserved at first and when the total investment amount is reached, the amount will be transferred to SPVs bank account by BitOfProperty and the property acquisition will be carried out. For the over-the-counter marketplace deals, where you buy shares from other investors, you would have to fill out a Buy Order. Before that, make sure you have sufficient funds in your Wallet. Once a matching sell order has been found, BitOfProperty will contact you directly to complete the transaction.

If the investment amount of the campaign is not reached, the money is sent back to your wallet and you can use it to invest in other investment opportunities or transfer it back to your personal bank account.

When you make an investment, your share will be calculated by dividing the amount you invested with total investment amount of the deal. Both monthly rental income and capital gain will be distributed according to the share you own in the property. Rental income will be distributed every month, whereas, capital gain will be distributed in the end of the investment term. If you sell your share within the investment period, you will receive capital appreciation on your share earlier, assuming that you were able to sell the share with a profit.

Investment term for the opportunities is usually between 3-5 years. The investment term can be shorter or longer, depending on the situation of the real estate market.

Fees

There are no transaction fees for the investors.

Investors are only charged with the Management Fee of 10% from the rental income. In case there is a vacancy period with no rental income, the Management Fee will not be charged.
