Personal Loans
an unsecured personal loan tends to be more straightforward than other forms of finance. As the loan is unsecured, it does not require you to put an asset (such as your home) down as collateral against the loan.
Personal loans are offered by the majority of banks and other lenders, and you can typically expect to borrow between £1,000 and £25,000 over a relatively short period of time (in comparison to a secured loan). As personal loans tend to be considerably smaller than secured loans, there are only a select few lenders willing to offer £30,000 loans. As a result, many borrowers look towards secured loans when looking to borrow loans of this size.
Secured Loan
A secured loan is a loan that is protected by an asset or collateral of some sort (usually your home). Secured loans have become popular amongst home owners as they usually offer lower interest rates than unsecured loans.
However, secured loans are also perceived as being a more risky method of gaining finance, as if you cannot keep up with repayments, there is the potential for you to lose your home. Homeowner loans are usually preferable when looking to take out larger amounts of money.
It is worth noting that the amount you can borrow, the rate of interest and the loan term is likely to depend on your personal circumstances, market conditions and the amount of equity that you own in your property. Secured loans can be used for an almost endless amount of possibilities providing it is not illegal or for commercial use.
