Secured Loans

If your purchasing a new or used asset such as a car, motorbike, boat, caravan or horse trailer and need to repay the loan back over a specified time, chances are your lender will most likely offer you a secured loan. A secured loan provides you with the opportunity to gain finance for higher value items where the lender will take security or collateral of your purchase against the loan. Think of it as similar to a home loan; if you borrow a large sum, for the lender to offer you the funds they want comfort in knowing should the loan dishonour, then they can sell the asset to recoup some on the loan balance. This is done by securing the purchase against the loan. Although secured loans can provide you with quicker loan approvals and generally better interest rates, there are some factors which must be taken into consideration. When applying for a secured loan, it is important to take into consideration the asset you are purchasing directly affects the interest rate and loan term. This means for an older model car, motorbike, caravan or boat the interest rate offered will be different to that of a newer model.
