Homeowner Loans And Loans Before And During The Recession.
In the past previous to the credit crunch all types of loans were readily available. Loans were freely flying about like pieces of confetti.
There was even a good availability of loans for tenants that is for those who do not actually own their own home but rent it from a housing association, a local council or a private individual.
There has always been companies such as Provident who grant loans to both tenants and homeowners but these loans are for small amounts and their interest rates are high.
Welcome Finance used to advance both secured and unsecured loans to both tenants and homeowners, and although their interest rates were high, it was a useful product which did allow tenants to borrow the money they needed. Unfortunately after many years of profitable trading, Welcome closed their doors, and this left tenants out on a limb with very little options of obtaining a loan.This is a most unfortunate situation., and one that could not be fore seen.
The situation is such that if a non homeowner really needs a loan, they are forced to go to one of the many pay day loans firms which have sprung up and their loans have interest rates of often almost 2000%. Yes 2,000%, and this is not a typing error.
The poorest and weakest in society when they require a loan have always been forced to use the services of illegal money lenders who abound in the large inner city housing areas. Now people who in the past could obtain loans else where are being forced to go down the route of the illegal money lenders, as their last hope.
Homeowners are in the enviable position of being able to apply for secured homeowner loans at the excellent rate of about 9% if their credit rating is good.
Bad credit secured loans are still available to homeowners with sufficient equity.
