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.


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.
