Thrifty Loans

A loan is an easily available option to meet financial needs, be it one time or on a monthly basis. Getting loans is not at all difficult nowadays since different banks or companies come up with lucrative offers to attract customers in this competitive market.

With a loan, the borrower receives a certain sum of money from the bank or company where he has applied for loan against a contract that he will repay the same amount within a specific term along with interest. He can choose the payment option as monthly or partial repayments.

Types of loan available to UK applicants:-

Secured loans – where the borrower applies for loan against an asset, normally your home. The amount of a secured loan that you are eligible for depends on the equity level in your home.

Unsecured loans – where the borrower doesn’t need to provide any asset but can apply for such loan against some basic identity and proof of income. Hence these loans normally charge a higher interest rate. Some common examples: credit card debt, personal loan, holiday loan, payday loans etc

Since secured loans normally come with better terms and conditions, we will discuss in detail about this option.

Secured loans – as the term implies are secured with an asset or collateral like house/ property / car or even jewelry or household appliances.  There are banks or financial organizations or even pawn shops who will give such loans against the collateral. However, terms will vary depending on the asset class.

House/property – is considered as the most sought after asset class and banks are willing to lower interest rates or offer attractive terms to lure such a client. A mortgage loan is given to purchase a new house.

Car loans is another option when the money is used to purchase a new or even a used car and till such time the loan is repaid the borrower can use the car but ownership remains with the lender. Sometimes the bank sanctions the loan directly to the client or they may have tie ups with the dealer so that the loan gets sanctioned via the dealer.

Loans provide you the money just when you need it and secured loans can help you in cracking the best and cheapest loan deals.
