Unsecured Loans - Tenant Loans For Something Special
By Andy Silk
Unsecured loans can be perfect for providing the finance for something you’ve always wanted but have never had the cash available to go and buy before. No matter what it is that you have in mind, as long as your purchase is not for commercial / business reasons, there are lenders who specialise in this type of loan who are looking to help.

Exciting isn’t it? Before we get carried away however, the fact that you are reading this article may suggest that you sense that there could be a problem waiting for you when you apply. Let’s take a look at where some of those problems may arise…

Unsecured loans are typically available for between £500 to £15,000 with most lenders. If you need more, you may not be able to get the money you need in this way. The reason lenders put a ceiling on the amount of money that they are prepared to lend is primarily because they have no real security that you are going to pay the money back. If you think about it, nobody has the right to borrow money. This means that the lender will need to test your suitability to their particular rules before they agree to provide you with the finance you need.

Whilst still substantial, the amounts of money involved are perhaps significantly less than with a mortgage or a secured loan which reflects the level of risk that you are asking the lender to face when investing their money in you. That is not to say that they think that you are going to default but if you did, and as many have in the past often due to unforeseen circumstances, the lender may have not only lost their capital investment; they have lost their interest to be earned from the deal as well. Whilst they could force you through the courts to repay the money and they could recover some of the money through the use of bailiffs, it is hardly an ideal solution.

With unsecured loans and tenant loans, they will probably prefer to run a few checks on you and your financial circumstances first. They will check your citizenship to see how likely it is that you could up-sticks and return to your country of origin once you have received the cheque. It is important

that you are a UK citizen.

They will look at your history of residency in your current and previous properties if you have been in the current home for less than three years. Again, they want to know how likely it is that you may move and effectively disappear with their money once you have the cheque.

Employment history is also important because with employment comes income to repay the loan. Regular income and preferably from the same employed over a period of years is desirable with a lender because this shows stability and reduces to some extent, the likelihood of you becoming unemployed in the near future and being unable to repay the loan.

They will also want to check your credit file with one of the large credit reference agencies such as Experian or Equifax to see whether you have borrowed money through other forms of credit in recent times and whether you have kept up the repayments or not. This helps them to understand whether you are likely to default in the future.

Once they have this information amongst other questions that they may ask, they apply a points score to the results and if the score is within a certain threshold figure for that particular lender, they may agree to lend you the money and you can now begin to enjoy the benefits of your loan.

Unsecured loans and tenant loans are pretty straightforward to apply for these days, so just find an online broker and fill in your details on their enquiry form and sit back and relax. They will take charge of the application process and do the vast majority of the work on your behalf. Good luck with your application!
