Secured loans UK are available to those who own their own home, how it works is simple and straight forward, you can borrow anything from 5,000 to 100,000 possibly more depending on the individual lender and your home is used as collateral against the loan.
In order for you to do this you will have to ensure there is either sufficient equity to borrow against, it is however possible for banks and financial institutions to approve Secured loans against properties that do not have sufficient equity, often this may be the case if you have just moved into a new property and have not made enough Mortgage payments.
If you already have a Secured Loan against your property, in order for you to obtain another one, the first one will be redeemed from any future advances.
Secured Loans are ideal for releasing cash in a hurry, whether you require the money for a business venture, new car, wedding, holiday or home improvements or you may wish to use the money purely to consolidate any existing debts, so that you will be left with one affordable monthly payment, some lenders will even allow you a six-month payment break when money is tight.
Those with adverse credit such as CCJS (county court judgements) defaults, mortgage arrears and even secured loan arrears can apply for a Secured Loan. The majority of lenders do not credit score and have individual plans that allow for some adverse credit.
You can even be accepted if you are self employed with no proof of income or accounts, the interest rate will undoubtedly be higher for these cases, however if you are willing to shop around, you can find an interest rate and repayment method that will suit your circumstances.
