When Secured Loans Are Used As Home Improvement Loans

By Veronica Sally


The weather is a little bit better as we are now into May and it now seems to be a good time to think about arranging a secured loan which is also often known as a homeowner loan

Homeowner loans is a name used because no one but homeowners can apply and these loans are normally secured at the address at which they reside although if someone owns a buy to let property it is still often possible to get a homeowner loan, but at a more restricted loan to value.

Another name for homeowner loans is secured loans and this is because they need to be secured on collateral which is the equity on the property of the borrower.

How much of an homeowner loan can be granted depends on the equity available on the property, and equity is the difference between the value of a property and the mortgage secured on it.

Homeowners with enough equity can arrange secured loans from 5,000 with most lenders up to a maximum of 100,000 with other lenders although there are secured loan lenders prepared to lend up to 500,000.

Homeowner loans are loans with many purposes hat can be used for almost any reason but with Spring on the horizon thoughts are going to go to the improving of your property for that festive time of year.

If you decide to improve your property for Spring it is possible to get credit from the home improvement company but as they have interest rates of about 25% it is not a wise route to go down as secured loans are much lower at about 9% APR.

Taking out a secured loan to undertake improvements means that you can do much more work for similar money.

You can then relax and wonder with awe at what you have achieved to your home due to secured loans.

If you are a homeowner it is stupid to pay for the improvements in any other fashion as the n interest rates are so low for secured loans and remortgages. Also you must remember that these homeowner loans can also be used to buy almost anything.
