Secured loans

Over recent years an increasing number of homeowners have turned to secured loans in order to provide them with the finance that they need. The wide range of secured loans are available to homeowners. This is because these loans are secured against the property, hence the borrower must be a homeowner. There are many benefits to this type of loan, which has made them popular amongst homeowners looking to raise finance for a range of purposes.

When looking at secured loans there are a number of things that you should bear in mind. Firstly, these loans are secured on your home and therefore it is important that you are able to keep up with the repayments. Make sure that you can afford the repayments on the loan, and make sure that you get a competitive rate of interest and a suitable repayment period to help keep your monthly repayments down. This isn't always an easy task, but Loans4 has access and links to a wide range of secured loans offering very competitive interest rates and a choice of repayment periods of between 3 to 25 years, which means that you can enjoy more affordable repayments which wont strech your budget.

One of the main benefits when it comes to secured loans is the increased borrowing power available to borrowers, of between £3,000 to £250,000. The amount that you can borrow will depend on a number of factors, such as your income, financial and employment status, and your outgoings. It will also depend largely on the value of your property and the amount of other debts that may be secured against it, including your mortgage. However, secured lenders have the scope to lend far more than an unsecured lender because it is largly based on based on the property equity levels. Most unsecured lenders will not lend more than £25,000, and then only to those with a perfect credit history/rating.

A great benefit of secured loans is that they are more accessible to those with poor credit. If you have a bad credit rating then the chances of getting an unsecured loan are slim to none. However, a secured loan gives the lender more security and this means that lenders are more likely to consider your application even if you have a bad credit rating. If you want to keep your monthly outgoings down then secured loans offer an added bonus – a choice of repayment periods (3 to 25 years), which are far longer than those available with unsecured finance (1 to 7 years). This means that you spread your loan over a longer period and get to make lower monthly repayments.

At Loans4 we can offer a choice of secured loans that are designed to suit all needs and circumstances, so as long as you are a homeowner you can benefit from great value finance, competitive interest rates to suit you, and affordable repayments that won't leave you financially struggling at the end of each month. You can find out quickly and easily whether you are eligible for a low cost secured loan, and you can be certain that your loan will prove to be value for money and highly competitive.

You can use secured loans for a wide range of purposes, and this includes carrying out home improvements, consolidating other debts, paying for special events such as a wedding, funding education, buying luxuries such as new cars, treating yourself to a fabulous holiday, and much more. Whatever you need to raise finance for you will find that secured loans are an effective, affordable, and sensible option for those with their own home.

Here at Loans4 we can find a perfect solution for your needs based on the information that you provide and your circumstances, so you can look forward to getting a great offer on a secured loan without having to worry about paying over the odds in interest and repayments.

Bank fo England cuts rate by 1.5%

The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee today voted to reduce the Bank Base Rate 1.5% percent to 3.0%.

The past two months have seen a substantial downward shift in the prospects for inflation in the United Kingdom. There has been a very marked deterioration in the outlook for economic activity at home and abroad. Moreover, commodity prices have fallen sharply.

Since mid-September, the global banking system has experienced its most serious disruption for almost a century. While the measures taken on bank capital, funding and liquidity in several countries, including our own, have begun to ease the situation, the availability of credit to households and businesses is likely to remain restricted for some time. As a consequence, money and credit conditions have tightened sharply. Equity prices have fallen substantially in many countries.

In the United Kingdom, output fell sharply in the third quarter. Business surveys and reports by the Bank’s regional Agents point to continued severe contraction in the near term. Consumer spending has faltered in the face of a squeeze on household budgets and tighter credit. Residential investment has fallen sharply and the prospects for business investment have weakened. Economic conditions have also deteriorated in the UK’s main export markets.

CPI inflation rose to 5.2% in September. The substantial rise since the beginning of the year largely reflects the impact of higher energy and food prices. But commodity prices have fallen sharply since mid-summer, with oil prices down by more than a half. Inflation should consequently soon drop back sharply, as the contribution from retail energy and food prices declines, notwithstanding the fall in sterling. Pay growth has remained subdued. And measures of inflation expectations have fallen back.

Since the beginning of the year, the Committee has set Bank Rate to balance two risks to the inflation outlook. The downside risk was that a sharp slowdown in the economy, associated with weak real income growth and the tightening in the supply of credit, pulled inflation materially below the target. The upside risk was that above-target inflation persisted for a sustained period because of elevated inflation expectations. In recent weeks, the risks to inflation have shifted decisively to the downside. As a consequence, the Committee has revised down its projected outlook for inflation which, at prevailing market interest rates, contains a substantial risk of undershooting the inflation target. At its November meeting, the Committee therefore judged that a significant reduction in Bank Rate was necessary now in order to meet the 2% target for CPI inflation in the medium term, and accordingly lowered Bank Rate by 1.5 percentage points to 3.0%.

The Committee’s latest inflation and output projections will appear in the Inflation Report to be published on Wednesday 12 November.

The previous change in Bank Rate was a reduction of 0.5 percentage points to 4.5% on 8 October 2008.
