[rosepetal1]

I am in my first year of IVA and have a monthly payment of 330£ my full debt was around 83000£ I won a property but no equity left there now because of Corona Things are not as it was planned
My question can I pay a lum sum and how much is a reasonable amount to offer which may accepted as amount will come as support by family member non returnable

Afull and final offer is based on remaining payments. As you are a homewowner, it is customary to add in the 12 extra payments in lieu of equity release. I know you say you have no equity at the moment, but the creditors will be looking at whether there will be any at the end of the arrangement --- things change.

So, you have, let's say you are at the end of the first year ( some IVA's have a clause barring early payments in the first 6 months or first year). You will have 48 + 12 payments left ....So 60 x 330 = 19,800. Of course, if you can make the creditors accept that there will be no equity coming, you could try to knock off those 12 extra payments, meaning the offer would be based on £15,840 (48 x 330)

Bearing in mind that you would be saving everybody 4 or 5 years of messing about with dividends, you have room to reduce this a little ---- but, of course, the higher the offer the more chance it will be accepted. I have seen very low offers accepted, yet very high ones refused ! Were it my IVA, I would go in with around £15k, including those 12 months ( or £12k without the equity element --- which would be a harder sell).
