It there's no equity you can't!! You have to go through the process of obtaining a valuation, redemption figures etc to confirm that there is none though. Usually, unless there is a modification to the contrary, your IVA should conclude after 60 months if there is no equity.

As Footie says -- you have to jump through the hoops and prove equity falls below de minimis.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

The IP has to do a review of the equity situation as part of the agreement. If there is no equity then the IVA will just close down.

You will just need to show the IP there is no equity.
