Finance to Respond to an IRD Statutory Demand
When there's a fixed legal deadline and liquidation is the alternative
A statutory demand gives you 15 working days to pay the debt or reach an arrangement, or the company is presumed unable to pay its debts and liquidation can follow. Flexy lends against the equity a company or trust already holds in a property to clear the debt within that window, so the deadline doesn't force liquidation when the funds are otherwise available.

How Flexy helps
We lend against the equity you already hold as a company or trust in a property, without disturbing your existing bank mortgage. Because we assess your equity directly, rather than requiring a full bank application, we can usually move at the pace a statutory deadline requires.
Your repayment plan is confirmed as part of the application, based on your situation and how the debt is ultimately to be repaid.

How this works: clearing a statutory demand within the deadline
The situation
A company received a statutory demand from IRD and had limited time to pay or reach an arrangement before risking liquidation. The company held equity in a property, but couldn't access it through a bank in time.
What we did
Funds against the equity in the property to clear the debt within the statutory deadline.
The outcome
The debt is cleared, the statutory demand is satisfied, and the liquidation risk is resolved.
