Safeguarding assets, unlocking value
LPA Receivers
Appointing a Property or Fixed Charge Received is a cost-e ective way of recovering a debt secured by a xed charge.
• We are professionals with expertise in property management, nance and law.
• We are duty bound to act in the best interests of the lender, working to maximize the recovery of debt through e cient management and eventual sale of the asset.
• We will expedite the resolution process. The receiver has the authority to take immediate control of the property, bypassing the need for lengthy court proceedings. This allows the bank to take prompt action to protect its interests and recover the debt more e ciently.
• We will act as independent third parties, this will ensure an objective approach to property management and debt recovery, reducing potential con icts of interest and ensuring a fair and transparent process, instilling con dence in all parties involved.
• We are typically paid from the proceeds of the asset sale or from the income generated by the property during their appointment. This means that the bank does not usually bear the cost of the receiver’s services upfront.
• Our expertise enables them to navigate intricate situations e ectively, handle legal complexities, and manage challenging property portfolios more e ciently than the bank itself. Multiple properties, complex legal issues, or a history of non-compliance are all well within our capability.

My experience with this company was outstanding. Great communication, transparent pricing, excellent service. Craig was very professional and delivered the valuation report on time. I would recommend this company to anybody.
Marius Purcar
Jacob is a consummate professional and has an incredible eye for detail . He has a huge bank of knowledge when it comes to surveying and is a gentleman to deal with.
B Foley, Property Manager
Has to be a glowing 5 star review. I instructed Jacob and the team to value a plot of land I purchased and help me negotiate with the council who had their own valuation. I'm glad I did get a second opinion, it saved me over 20 percent of the asking price from the council. Absolute pleasure to deal with and would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone.
John Stone
