Financial Institutions can now produce an income stream from default mortgaged properties on a monthly basis through the appointment of a Rent Receiver.
The present financial climate has created challenges for Financial Institutions requiring direct involvement in the management of investment mortgaged assets.
- Due
to the challenging financial environment some borrowers are
struggling to generate income streams and in some cases are
leaving Investment properties vacant.
- Properties become Undermanaged, Uninsured, Under rented.
- This
can result in the deterioration of the asset and in some
cases can lead to dilapidation, resulting in considerable
depreciation of the asset value.
- The
volume of distressed loans has increased, forcing Financial
Institutions to bring a greater number of repossession cases
before the Courts.
- On
receipt of a repossession order, the Financial Institution
will have a property that is difficult to sell at a price
that will clear the outstanding
mortgage.
Most new mortgages for residential investment property allow for the appointment of a Rent Receiver, where there has been a default in repayments on the part of the borrower. A Rent Receiver can be appointed to distressed mortgage accounts where no payments have been made for periods of One year or more.
