Consolidate expensive debt

The early part of 2017 saw a sharp rise in the number of mortgage advisers looking for second charge loans for clients concerned about their expensive long-term debt.

According to figures from the Bank of England, Brit’s personal debt grew 11% in the year to 30 November 2016 to stand at £193bn – the highest level since December 2008.

This notable growth in the level of household debt, alongside record low rates on second charge products, are combining to boost demand for second charge loans.

If borrowers are paying a low interest rate on their main mortgage, or they are within an early repayment charge period, a second charge mortgage can be the most sensible way to consolidate that expensive debt.

There are more low rate second charge products on the market than ever before, many at highly attractive rates, so there are real opportunities now for brokers to help their clients consolidate their debts.

Secured loans should be considered as a viable debt solution offering products that are affordable and sustainable.

Lending these days is a very confusing area for most consumers with so many alternatives available. It is highly recommended that anyone considering taking out a new loan should seek professional advice as a mistake could prove very costly.
