Tenant Loans

Tenant Loans

Tenant Loans are generally available to people who do not own their own property & are just tenants in the property where they live.

Furthermore, what this means is that not owning your own property doesn’t allow you to put up property as collateral if it is required for certain types of funding & terms of getting certain credit.

So not being able to provide a property as collateral for a loan does not necessarily mean that you don’t have any other options for loan funding as this is the exactly situation where you can apply for a tenant loan.

As the the credit is being given without collateral this also means that the loan, is in effect, becomes an unsecured loan.

Benefits & Disadvantages Of Tenant Loans

These type of loans are often the only option for people without property or for those who have a bad credit record, but whilst they certainly often many benefits there are also a few disadvantages associated with them.

Below are some points to take note of before committing to such a loan;

• not required to provide immoveable property as collateral
• they come at a higher than normal interest rate as they are seen as unsecured loans, ie high risk
• these types of loans are relatively easy to secure even for people with bad credit
• usually no credit check is required
• quick approval process

While it seems fairly easy & quick to secure a tenant loan, it must be noted that they do come at an interest rate that will be significantly higher than that which would be charged by a mainstream bank.

• must be over 18 years of age
