About
our homeowner secured loans |
A homeowner
secured loan ties the loan into your property, which gives
the lender more security. This may enable them to loan more
or to reduce the rates they can offer, though you will
need to make sure you can re-pay the loan as your property
may be at risk if you cannot repay the amount you borrow.
A homeowner loan may be a good way of reducing your outgoings
by consolidating more expensive borrowing, such as credit
cards or store cards. You may also be able to raise more money
than if you take out an unsecured loan.

DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT OUR UK
HOMEOWNER LOANS
The homeowner loan agreement
When you enter into a homwoener loan agreement – you
are signing a contract to make the repayments, by the specified
date every month for the length of the loan agreement. Any
deviation from this agreement may result in monetary penalties.
For example, some loan lenders apply an early settlement
charge (also known as a redemption penalty) if you repay
the homeownerloan in full before the agreed end date. This
can be up to 2 months interest. If you think you will be
able to pay off the homeowner loan before the end of the
term then your best bet will be to arrange a homeowner loan
with no early settlement costs, however the APR may be slightly
higher.
Flexibility within the homeowner loan agreement
If you would like some flexibility in your homeowner loan
agreement, make sure you arrange this before you sign on
the dotted line. You may be able to arrange occasional over-payments
and lump-sum payments, both of which allow you to clear
the homeowner loan over a shorter time period than first
agreed. If your homeowner loan is a truly flexible product
then you may also be able to use the fund as a bank account,
withdrawing funds from the account on a rolling basis, providing
you stay within your credit limit. Lenders also offer repayment
holidays, allowing you to defer your monthly cheap loan
repayments either at the start of the homeowner loan (known
as 'deferred repayment') or at an agreed point during the
term.
Interest on the homeowner loan
You are charged interest on the amount you have borrowed
with the loan – it is a percentage of the borrowed
amount which accumulates over the period of the agreement.
Interest rates on homeowner loans vary from 7% up to 20%.
The interest rate will be included in the APR. This stands
for Annual Percentage Rate, and includes the administration
cost of setting up the mortgage, any discount periods, how
often interest is calculated and also calculates what the
average rate of interest will be over the life of the homeowner
loan. To comply with the consumer credit act all lenders
must ensure that the borrower is informed of the APR (the
annual percentage rate on the homeowner loan).
Fixed or variable interest homeowner Loans
The APR can be a fixed or variable charge. A fixed APR has
the benefit of added security since the rate will not change,
a variable APR does not have this security but could reduce
the cost of your total payments if interest rates go down.
HINTS
AND TIPS WHEN TAKING OUT A HOMEOWNER LOAN IN THE UK
Look at the small print - although the homeowner
loan with the lowest APR is one factor that contributes to
a cheap loan, you should always pay attention to the small
print as any additional costs will be found there. If at any
stage you need further information about your homeowner loan
application then talk to our advisers, remember once you
submit
your homeowner loan application you still have a 'cooling
off period' which enables you to cancel.
Never borrow more on a homeowner loan than
you need - you will only pay more back in interest - the more
you borrow on a loan the more it costs you.
Only ever make one loan application at a time – even
if you don’t take the offer up all the loan applications
will sit on your credit record, and will not look favorable
for future finance applications.
Consider loan insurance and protection – if you lose
your job, have an accident or become sick, you will still
have to make your repayments in full so it’s a good
idea to take out loan insurance, especially as the loan is
secured on your home. We offer a huge range of income protection
products, if you would like more information on how to protect
your loan then click here
Stay in control - make sure you know exactly what the monthly
loan payments will be, and how much you will pay back in total.
Everyone’s different - lenders calculate the total cost
of a homwoener loan in different ways, so try and get some
understanding of the formulas they use.
Compare like for like – the low monthly interest rates
for homeowner loans in shop windows may look lower than the
yearly APR in another, but the only way to find out is to
carry out full calculations for both offers.
Check out the alternatives - you may be able to get a better
deal on a home improvement loan by going to your mortgage
lender rather than taking out a homeowner loan.
