The Comprehensive Loan Repossession Process by Experts

Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd employs a systematic and robust approach when acting as loan repossession experts. Our process begins with a thorough review of the loan agreement and security documents to confirm the legal basis for repossession. We then initiate contact with the borrower to inform them of their default status and explore any potential resolution options, adhering to principles of natural justice. Should repossession become necessary, our field agents, equipped with proper identification and legal authorisation, carry out the recovery of the secured asset, whether it's a vehicle, machinery, or other collateral. We ensure the asset is secured and stored appropriately. Following repossession, we manage the legal requirements for sale, which may include advertising the asset for auction or private treaty sale, as dictated by the relevant statutes and the terms of the security agreement. Our team handles all documentation, including sale agreements and transfer of ownership, providing our clients with a detailed account of the recovery and disposal process, ensuring a complete and efficient resolution.

Costs, Fees, and Maximising Recovery for Lenders

We provide detailed cost estimates upfront, ensuring complete transparency.
