She really should have posted a thread to say that she had received a letter from Mortgage Express then Busta would have advised her to just not open it and then this situation simply would not exist. These business folk eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quicksilver Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 wonder what she spent all her money on? She is in huge negative equity on both BTL and has 5K equity in her personal home. Ridiculous situation, she must have bought all 3 at the peak of the market in 2007-2008 or MEW spunked away tens of thousands on fancy holidays! Self employed too, wonder if she runs a Nail salon and claims WTC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavalas Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Or is it me that's misinformed here? I don't have experience of how Mortgage Express operate. I assume they'll take your assets until the debt is paid or you're bankrupt? Not just take the BTLs and give the goon a stern ticking off?

There are lots of creative ways of getting out of this: 1) write a long rambling letter to an MP, don't forget to insult the MP's intelligence. 2) increase the rent 3) evict the tenant 4) go bankrupt and ruin the whole economy so everyone suffers. (Builders, handyman, tenants, orphans and small kittens) 5) do 2, 3 and 4 simultaneously by defying the laws of economics, physics and common sense. 6) move to malta 7) publish a book on how to get rich and not have to emigrate to do so....from the country you have had to emigrate to. 8) charge £1000 for the book then reduce to £5 - then realise you can't give it away. 9) tell everyone they are wrong and feel entitled 10) lose everything Alot of this will be lost in you guys so I have detailed it in a book and I have webinars twice a week. Cheques payable to 'Phil 321' or just to cash. Joking apart, What the b8llocks has this person being doing to be in such a state? We can try fill in the gaps but I bet the truth will be even funnier.

EnglishinWales Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Is the woman going to be able to go to court to stop a repossession or not. Would bankruptcy stop her from becoming homeless. The answers are contradictory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I haven't mistaken she has been housing such people and use it as sheild to write to her MP. How moronic it is? She has been getting rent and paying Bank throughout these years. She literally destroyed someone's ability to save for deposit. PRA were late by good 10-15 years. If bank had ever said "fckoff" to this thick tw@t, these houses could by home for the hard working families that paid her IO mortgages for these many years.

GreenDevil Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Last post is diamond. Haha you poor thing. MX have been crystalising losses since 2008. They do not have a target to make profit. Their only target is to close out the mortgage book and ‘return’ the money to the taxpayer. I assume they have already written off a lot of debt as toxic anyway, so anything more than 10% of the debt repaid is a job well done. They do not act as a business in the traditional sense so don’t make rational decisions as a business would. They would not need to get a possession order in court as such. You will not get your day in court. They will instruct LPA’s, who they will say are your agent, then the LPA will sell the houses on your behalf at a huge loss, probably to one of their friends, who will make a tidy profit. This sounds extreme I know, but I am not a pessimist, just a realist. Just type in CAG Mortgage Express LPA Receiver into Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also quite liked this one: This may not be the answer you are looking for, but my advice would be to squirrel as much of the rent away as possible. MX are completely inflexible, so inevitably, they will repossess and sell your houses, probably at larger losses than is justifiable. You are going to have a huge debt on your hands and the best option is likely to be bankruptcy. Think long term and start putting the money away now. Sorry to be so blunt, but I don’t see another way out for you given what you have said. You are likely to get away with not paying the mortgages for 3 months before they start proceedings. All the best. But isn't "squirreling away" just before going bankrupt effectively amounts to fraud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
