My Inrento Results After 2 Years of Lending

wiseclerk Leave a comment

Two years ago I started investing on Inrento*. On the Inrento* platform investors select property loans secured by a first rank mortgage. Typical interest rates are around 9-10% with loan terms between 12 and 36 months. Inrento has a strong track record with zero late projects, 78 million EUR lent and around 4200 active investors. The home market of Inrento* is Lithuania, where it is fully regulated and most projects are located – the platform also featured projects in Poland, Latvia and occasionally other countries.

There are detailled project descriptions and regular updates. The minimum investment per project is 500 EUR.

On the plus side of Inrento* there is

  • strong track record / good returns
  • secondary market available (2% seller fee)
  • good communication
  • good service (recently something did not go according to plan and a project I invested in was cancelled because the mortgage wasnot signed within the projected 20 days maximum. Inrento* paid all affected investors 0.35% cashback as compensation)
  • interest is paid monthly
  • fully regulated

On the downside there is

  • few new projects (about 1-3 per month), resulting in cash drag
  • new projects are often filled within hours after coming online
  • 15% withholding tax applied; can be reduced and possibly offseted in tax declarations depending on the rules of the home country of the investor
  • no auto invest

After roughly two years my yield is a little under 10% per annum. I can say only good things about Inrento*. The main gripe is the cash drag which is the result of the growing popularity of Inrento* among investors.
