Asset Management Monthly Update - June 2023

Our monthly Groundfloor Asset Management series remains committed to highlighting key performance metrics and other relevant data managed by our Asset Management team. Our goal is to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of our loan portfolio's monthly performance. 

By the Numbers 

Within this segment, we present insights into the crucial performance metrics relating to the loan portfolio performance for the month of June. Our assessment will encompass loan payoffs, repayment and interest volume, rate of return, and loss ratios. Additionally, we have included comprehensive views of our loan performance states and a detailed overview of the data from the beginning of the year for enhanced clarity.

Loan Payoffs

Groundfloor recorded 75 loan repayments in June, only a slight decrease from the previous month's total of 82. The total number of repaid loans for the year has now reached 482.

Despite the continuing ongoing economic challenges, loan repayments have still seen normal ebbs and flows and showing stability. The past quarter's performance rates have been robust, which is a positive trend as we move towards the second half of the year and aim to finish strong in 2023.

Below is a monthly breakdown of the loans repaid and repayment volume to date in 2023:

Repayment & Interest Volume

The repayment volume for the month of June saw a 10.1% increase of $1.7M for a total of $18,572,140. Interest also increased by 7.4% to $1,865,332, making June the 3rd highest month in both loan repayments and volume interest so far this year. 

Rate of Return

In June, the rate of return decreased slightly month over month to  9.86%, though still higher than each of the three months in Q1. Groundfloor is still maintaining a strong all time rate-of-return of 9.82%.

Loss Ratio

In June, Groundfloor had 3 losses. This year, we have had 19 losses, averaging just 3 per month, which gives us a year-to-date loss ratio average of just 0.96%. June’s loss ratio decreased to 0.77% with Groundfloor running an overall historical loss rate of an impressively low 0.42%. This low all time rate is especially significant considering current market conditions, as well as the removal of loans from our active portfolio originating during the COVID pandemic era.

Further Detail

Groundfloor identifies four distinct loan states within our portfolio: Current, Extended, Default, and Losses. The charts below offer a month-over-month depiction of repayments from all four loan portfolio states for the first half of 2023.

Lastly, we present a full view into our overall loan portfolio, broken out into expanded detail for your assessment.

What We’re Seeing

The Groundfloor Asset Management team is working with borrowers to keep their projects moving in the right direction. The below highlights some team adjustments as well as some observations we are seeing in the marketplace:  

  • Groundfloor continues to expand our asset management team with the addition of another Asset Manager in June.  This will improve oversight of the portfolio and provide further support to borrowers and investors. 
  • Groundfloor has added a new tax monitoring service to the Asset Management lifecycle to properly notify all parties when taxes are due and provide robust communication tools to ensure compliance with local taxing districts nationwide.
  • The housing market remains incrementally complex since the pandemic. With uncertainty surrounding home prices, fluctuating mortgage rates, and shortages of inventory throughout the country Groundfloor remains committed to working with borrowers to provide support and guidance where needed. 
  • Several older loans moved to default based on an inability of the borrowers to repay their loans either through a sale or refinance.  These are older loans originated towards the end of the pandemic.  Groundfloor expects to see a temporary increase to the default rate as a result
  • Draw requests remain elevated compared to previous periods which continues to reflect strong borrower activity.
