We’re delighted to add a new layer of transparency on the CapitalStackers website.
On the new “Portfolio Statistics” page, members can find answers to general questions, such as how much cash we’ve raised in total through our investors, how much has been provided by banks and what the average investment is.
But it also allows them to browse through enlightening performance stats such as
- Highest and lowest investor returns
- Average return
- Repayment performance
- Risk and reward
Along with useful background information to explain any anomalies or unusual variations.
You may ask why we haven’t done this before. The simple answer is, until recently we haven’t had sufficient data. However, having reached the significant milestone of £60 million funding raised (that’s £45 million through banks and the rest through you) we feel the sample size is now robust enough to give you a meaningful set of statistics.
We’d like to take a moment to thank our investors and appreciate what a huge achievement they’ve helped to make possible – behind every statistic there is a viable, successful building project that would never have got off the drawing board if it weren’t for their collective support.
So now’s finally the time to stop hiding our light under the bushel.

P2P lending platform CapitalStackers has been awarded full FCA authorisation, following a detailed assessment by the FCA.
CapitalStackers is a direct peer to peer lender, matching developers seeking finance with investors. The company aims to plug the funding gap between typical bank debt and the developer’s equity. Investors typically receive double digit returns up to 20%.
Steve Robson, Managing Director of CapitalStackers comments, “We have always had a strong commitment to compliance, abiding by strict codes of conduct and giving our investors total transparency on every deal. Becoming an FCA approved lender is a lengthy and rigorous process and gives investors that extra comfort – it is the icing on the cake. We understand that a number of other P2P lenders withdrew their applications when they realised what was involved, which makes our approval status even more significant.
“At CapitalStackers, we only arrange loans to experienced developers, many of whom have already raised part of the funding requirement through a major high street bank and gone through their independent due diligence process, as well as our own stringent checks. No investment is without risk, but ours are carefully assessed, managed, and transparent.
“Compared to pooled lending, the beauty of direct lending is that investors are fully in control of what level of risk and return they are comfortable with. They choose the deal, loan amount, layer and return and have access to detailed information on which to judge the risks. They like to invest in secured lending against bricks and mortar and the information we provide leaves no room for questions or doubt. They have everything they need to make an informed decision. This transparency and conduct is why our investors are re-investing again and again.”

CapitalStackers, the exciting new peer-to-peer property lending platform, has lured senior industry figure Sylvia Bowden to join its ranks.
Originally an investment fund manager, then a chartered surveyor running York’s second largest practice, Sylvia rose to prominence after switching to the banking industry and spending more than a decade structuring bank debt for property investments and developments. Her robust, cashflow-led approach to risk assessment and risk management have been the hallmark of her deals and make her a perfect company fit.
CapitalStackers’ Managing Director, Steve Robson, said, “I’m delighted Sylvia is joining us. The appointment affirms CapitalStackers’ growing presence in property finance”.
Sylvia said her decision to join CapitalStackers was driven by “a desire to make a difference”.
“Real estate finance has been in the doldrums for too long and initiatives like CapitalStackers will be the catalyst to get the country building again. I’m really looking forward to writing new deals” she said.
Nigel Bennett, Chairman, said, “This is another step forward for the company and its plans to improve the funding options for property borrowers and provide attractive secured returns for investors who lend to them. ”
