What is an unsecured loan?
An unsecured loan – also known as a personal loan - is where you borrow money without having to provide security against it such as your home or car. Unsecured loans are suitable when you want to borrow a smaller amount of money.With an unsecured loan, interest rates tend to be a bit higher than if you borrowed the money as a secured loan. This is because, with a secured loan, the lender has less of a risk of getting the money back should you default on payments.
What is a prime lender?
Prime lenders are suitable for people who have an excellent credit history. Prime lenders typically offer the lowest interest rates and the lowest fees for borrowing, subject to you meeting their criteria. If you have late or missed payments on other credit within the last six years, it is unlikely that you will be accepted by a prime lender. If you do get accepted and your credit history is less than perfect, then you will probably pay a few percent more than your contemporaries with an excellent history.
What is an arrangement fee?
An arrangement fee is something that is charged by a lender or broker when you take out borrowing such as a loan or mortgage. It is to cover their costs in arranging the lending. Some lenders will offer this free of charge in order to attract new customers.
