Why Choose a Secured Loan?

Are you wondering why choose a secured loan? A secured loan is a loan which is provided to you from a bank or building society. Secured loans require you to be able to put an asset up to secure the loan, this is typically your home.

Because a secured loan is secured on property, most lenders will approve your loan even if you have a history of adverse credit such as county court judgements, defaults and arrears. This make secured loans very attractive to people who would otherwise not qualify for a loan from their local bank.

You can borrow any amount from £5,000 to £100,000 and repay it over any period from 5 to 25 years. You simply select a monthly payment that fits in your current circumstances. Generally, secured loans tend to be cheaper than unsecured loans and other forms of borrowing.

Secured loans have several advantages. A secured loan is a quick and convenient way to plug a short term financial need, for example, to go on holiday or extend or improve your home. In essence, a secured loan enables homeowners to unlock some extra cash by using their greatest asset - their home.

Secured loans are quick to arrange as property is always a good bet for the lender. Consequently, the terms are normally superior, with larger loan amounts, longer repayment periods and better interest rates than those you would obtain for an unsecured loan.

For people with little or poor credit history, a secured loan is probably one of the easiest ways to access credit.

A secured loan is a loan where you pledge your home against the amount of money borrowed. In the event that you default on the loan, the lender can sell your home to recoup the loss. The danger with a secured loan is if you are unable to keep up the repayments on your loan your home could be in danger.
