Repossessions occur when a borrower fails to repay their loan on time and the lender takes possession of the property. To avoid a spike in repossessions during the wake of the coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) introduced a mortgage payment holiday with the option of borrowers to access payment deferrals. As a result, the number of repossessions fell to record low in 2020. In the third quarter of 2022, there were 744 repossessions of mortgages to private individuals and 5,403 repossessions of mortgages to landlords.
