⚠️
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 consolidating debts, you may be extending the repayment term and increasing the total amount repaid.
1. About Us
Apply4Loan is a trading name of Ruby Holdings Ltd, registered in England and Wales (Company No. 09496123). Ruby Holdings Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN: 763879).
Registered office: Suite 3, 2nd Floor, Didsbury House, 748–754 Wilmslow Road, Manchester, M20 2DW.
We are a credit broker, not a lender. We introduce customers to selected third-party lenders and brokers who may be able to offer secured homeowner loans.
2. Our Services
Apply4Loan provides a credit broking service to help homeowners find suitable secured loan products. We search across a panel of lenders and brokers to identify potentially suitable options based on the information you provide.
Our initial eligibility check service is free to you. If you proceed with a loan through one of our partners, broker and lender fees may apply. These will be clearly disclosed before you commit to anything.
We do not provide financial advice. Information on this website is for general guidance only and does not constitute a personal recommendation. You should seek independent financial advice if you are uncertain whether a secured loan is right for your circumstances.
3. Eligibility
To use our service, you must:
• Be at least 18 years of age
• Be a UK resident
• Be a homeowner (own property in the UK)
• Have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement
By submitting an enquiry, you confirm that you meet these criteria. All loans are subject to status, affordability assessment and credit checks carried out by the lender.
4. No Guarantee of Credit
Submitting an enquiry through Apply4Loan does not guarantee that you will be offered a loan. All loan offers are subject to the lender's own credit assessment, affordability checks, property valuation and underwriting.
A Decision in Principle (DIP) is not a guaranteed or binding offer of credit and may be withdrawn or amended following full underwriting. You will be kept informed throughout the process.
5. Fees and Commission
Apply4Loan does not charge you a fee for submitting an enquiry. If you proceed with a loan, the following fees may apply:
Broker fee: Up to 12.5% of the loan amount borrowed, capped at £4,950, payable on completion.
Lender fees: Lenders may charge their own arrangement, valuation and legal fees. These will be set out in your personalised illustration before you commit.
Commission: Apply4Loan (a trading name of Ruby Holdings Ltd) may receive a fee or commission from lender and broker partners when we introduce you to them. We will disclose the nature of any commission arrangement that may affect our impartiality before you proceed.
Section 155 CCA 1974: You are entitled to a refund of any brokerage fee (less £5) if a credit agreement is not entered into within six months of an introduction to a source of credit.
6. Debt Consolidation Warning
If you are considering using a secured loan to consolidate existing debts, please be aware that you may be extending the term of those debts and increasing the total amount you repay overall. We will explain this clearly in your personalised illustration. Always consider whether consolidation is the right option for your circumstances.
7. Your Responsibilities
You agree to provide accurate, complete and up-to-date information when submitting an enquiry. Providing false or misleading information to obtain credit is a criminal offence under the Fraud Act 2006. Apply4Loan and its lending partners reserve the right to withdraw any offer if information provided was found to be inaccurate.
