Loan Repayments

Groundfloor recorded 62 loan repayments in September. A total of 710 loans have been paid year to date.

Notwithstanding the continued economic challenges, ongoing asset management efforts have contributed to stability in loan repayment activity. Despite factors such as inflation, rising interest rates, and borrower struggles, the performance rates for loan repayments have remained consistent. This positive trend is encouraging as we near the final quarter of the year.

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:  

  • Improved on time repayment rates due to Groundfloor investment in Asset Management staff focused on early engagement with borrowers
  • 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. 
  • Draw requests remain elevated compared to previous periods which continues to reflect strong borrower activity, especially amongst new construction loans.
