THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE SECURING OTHER DEBTS AGAINST YOUR HOME. YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON A MORTGAGE OR ANY OTHER DEBT SECURED ON IT.

IF YOU ARE THINKING OF CONSOLIDATING EXISTING BORROWING YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT YOU MAY BE EXTENDING THE TERM OF THE DEBT AND INCREASING THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU REPAY.


Apply4Loan.co.uk is a credit broker and introducer, not a lender.
We help introduce customers to selected third-party providers of secured homeowner loans.
Checking your eligibility with us will not affect your credit score. If you choose to proceed, a lender or broker partner may later carry out a hard credit search.
There is no fee for making an enquiry with Apply4Loan. If you proceed with a brokered loan through one of our partners, broker and lender fees may apply. We will explain clearly who charges any fee, when it becomes payable, and whether any refund rights apply before you proceed.


SECURED LOANS - Rates from 5.69% variable. We also have a range of plans with rates up to 36.6% allowing us to help customers with a range of credit problems.


Representative 11.3% APRC variable.

Representative example: if you borrow £34,480 over 10 years , initially on a fixed rate for 5 years at 7.60% and for the remaining 5 years on the lenders standard variable rate of 8.10%, you will make 60 monthly payments of £467.50 and 60 monthly payments of £473.06. The total repayable would be £56,528.60 (This includes a lender fee of £595 and a broker fee of £4137). The overall cost for comparison is 11.3% APRC representative. Maximum APR 36.6%


All fees charged by our partner (Norton Finance) will be explained in detail and subsequently in writing prior to commencement of any loan that our partner(s) are able to provide.

A broker fee of up to 12.5% of the loan amount borrowed, capped at £4950, may be payable on completion. Lender fees may also apply. The actual APRC rate available will depend on your individual circumstances. Loans and remortgages are subject to status. Please ask for a personalised illustration. Loans are secured on property.

Fees will only be payable where further services from our partner are requested and depending on the solution, costs may vary.


When we introduce you to Norton Finance, please be aware you are subject to their terms conditions and privacy policy.
