What is a Bridging Loan?
A bridging loan is designed to help you when you are selling your old home and buying a new one, because it is very difficult to get the timing right.
If I decide I need a personal loan, which type of lender is best?
Banks, building societies and specialist finance companies all offer personal loans. None are any better than the others in any outright sense – but because the market is so competitive, you'll need to shop around.
What can I do if I think information held by a credit reference agency on me is incorrect?
If you have been turned down for a loan and you cannot see any reason why, then you can contact the credit reference agency to see your personal credit report.
How do I make repayments and can I choose my monthly repayment date?
Your repayments will normally be taken from your bank by direct debit on a monthly basis. This means that you must have enough cleared funds in your account on the due date, or the payment will fail and you will have missed a payment.
How much can I reduce my monthly payments by with a debt consolidation loan?
It really depends on how much you owe. In some circumstances you may be able to reduce your total monthly repayments by as much as 75% - simply by consolidating your debts into one single payment.

What is a Tenant Loan?

If you are a tenant you do not own your own home. This means that any loan you take out must be a Tenant's Loan and will be unsecured.

There are disadvantages to this in that you will not be able to get such low interest rates or as much collateral as those who put up their home as security have access to. Rather than borrowing up to £100,000 which you can if you own a property, you will only be able to borrow up to £25,000. However there are benefits – the loan will not be tied to your home so if you do have problems repaying, your home will not be directly at risk.

Tenant loans are likely to be unsecured loans and thus the lender will need to be recompensed for the lack of security on the loan by charging higher interest rates. When applying for a tenant loan you will need to have three years accommodation and address details, and three years employment history. If you have moved address or job recently you may have more trouble getting a loan. However there are loan companies that will offer you a loan whatever your situation, so make sure you are honest when making your application and you will be able to get a loan that suits you and your needs.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or any debt secured on it. Security by way of a charge on your home may be required.
Think carefully before securing other debts to your home.
