The payment shortfall4 charges and excessive charges requirements in this chapter1 will continue to apply to a firm after a regulated mortgage contract has come to an end following the sale of a repossessed property. The excessive charges requirements will continue to apply to a firm after a home reversion plan has ended.1 References in this chapter to 'customer' will include references to a former customer as appropriate.
14The FCA will expect a firm to ensure that charges made to a customer arising from the sale of a repossessed property and charges arising in relation to a sale shortfall1 are not excessive and are subject to the same considerations as apply with respect to payment shortfall4 charges under this chapter.
141This chapter does not apply to a firm carrying on reversion activities or regulated sale and rent back activities3 in respect of a customer acting in his capacity as an unauthorised reversion provider or as an unauthorised SRB agreement provider.3
