Still have not sold your property portfolio?
Good news - your lender might soon do it for you.
Especially if your lender is a smallish shadowy non-bank with exposure to long duration paper and liar loans - should they fail then someone else will need to pick up the tab. And the next question would be - what do I want to get paid for it as a new owner of your mortgage? And how do I value my new book? And few a few steps after - can those proud and levered to the gills multi-million debt holders pay their due on the collateral that have lost 15-20%?
I told you that UK gilts were the canary in the tightening financial hole - most did not get it then.

Now, SVB is the most recent victim of the leveraged exposure to the long duration - 12th largest US bank, for a minute…
Think about it, this was not your aussie favorite lender of the year "Auburn Mortgage and Loan kiosk" where they also cook gorgeous shaver-ma between loan applications.
SVB had a run on and collapsed because of their book that they had mark to market.
I can guarantee you that this weekend all financial whales will be very busy with their spreadsheets scrutinizing every collateral on every book of almost every lender in the developed world.
Have you ever thought of what is on the books of your lender? And what you property collateral really worth to those who gave money to your lender? And what it is worth now with rates that have exponentially gone higher?
Sleep tight.
Here we go again…
