Own new rate reducer mortgage scheme is being launched on Monday. This is making new build properties more attractive to buyers than the 2nd hand market. Launching initially with Barratts
Am i reading this correctly, if they have 27 million in sales going through they only need to raise 23 million in some way to fund the bond?
I’ve just topped up today. Rates are going to start to fall, we’re hopefully seeing the top end of rates and once they start to fall this share will benefit massively
He may end up buying the company
I cant see why they don't reduce the dividend to pay down some debts. The share price has already been hit so much debt reduction needs to be key in the recovery of the company. They either reduce the dividend or they raise capital. Either way it’s going to be some dilution for us shareholders.

Edison issues update on Henderson Far East Income (HFEL)
In our last review of Henderson Far East Income in July, Attractive yield despite modest dividend increase, we drew attention to the dividend increase from what is comfortably the highest yielding fund in the AIC Asia Pacific Equity Income sector. It was pleasing to see that in the company's published full year results to the end of August, the dividends paid by the company were covered and that over £1m was added to the revenue reserves over this period. In this note we examine the drivers of performance, although it must be acknowledged that the weakness of sterling has been a tailwind for the portfolio's capital and income returns.
Overall, the managers are cognisant of the risks and are very modestly geared, but the portfolio trades on around 8x forward price to earnings and, with the market trading on c 1.1x book value, historically this has been at or near the bottom of the trading range for Asian equities over the past 30 years. The focus remains on identifying the highest quality, best value companies that can benefit from the secular growth in the region, driven by factors such as a growing affluent middle class and the transition to clean energy. Overall, the investment approach provides a high income and differentiated returns profile that would add diversification to other Asian funds or for those seeking income.
I just bought in on Friday so hopefully you’re not. Looks a solid company to me.
We’re still only at a P/E ratio of 13/14. Mab1 at something like 52. Lsl has so much potential growth ahead of it.
Well, I’ve joined the party today, just a small holding but looking forward to learning more about the company.
I'm gutted that I didn't put more in when it was cheaper even though I've been second guessing myself why this is not trading on the same PE ratio as MAB1.
this company just keeps on giving. another top up today at £4.00 for me. the financial service side of this company is going to fly. Profits up, investment for a digital age, things are really starting to move.
No idea what else they need to do to show they are an FS business. MAB1 here we come https://www.lse.co.uk/rns/LSL/major-financial-services-contract-win-vdicj61xklsiq9a.html
results tomorrow.... looking forward to them.

Another reasons to compare lsl to mab1 LSL Property Svcs. - Announcement of £200m JV with Pollen Street #LSL @LSLPS https://www.**********.co.uk/rns/announcement/53588320-1dbf-42c6-b9f3-9fb1c7d25f9f #********** undefined
Just had to pay £3.36 per share. This has slowly been trending upwards. Once the results come out and they confirm they are moving towards more of a financial services company the stock will re rate. I keep looking at MAB1 as a competitor not the estate agents.
Doing another small top up today.
The price seems to rise on very small trading. I’m expecting the results to be very good. ??
I’m starting to build a small position here where possible. This is no longer an estate agency business but a financial services business with an estate agents. They’ve recently made considerable investments into direct life and pension services and owning 100% of the assets of mortgage gym. MAB1 which currently has a P/E ratio of 51 (677m market cap)with approx 1600 advisers. LSL trading on 11 times earnings (330M Market Cap) with approx 2600 advisers. Ignoring all of the estate agency business, surveyors, new build, and Asset management sides of the business either LSL is fundamentally undervalued or MAB1 is substantially over valued. Interested to see what others views are.
Looks like a good trading update to me, better than expected results
