What Does Unsecured Mean? Part Four – Fast Action Finance

This ‘guarantee’ in most cases is based on the borrower’s property. Using a secured loan in most cases the individual is entering into a contract wherein they have agreed that the lender can repossess their home or parts of it if they are unable to pay back the loan.

What this then means is that the company is able to charge a lot less for its personal loans when they are secured, because they have the guarantee that they will get the money back one way or another. This means that when you take out a secured loan, you are not paying for the possibility that you won’t be able to pay off the loan, nor paying for other people’s inability to pay it back. This all then means that the cost of the loan is smaller and this is convenient in many situations.

Personal loans can be secured in other ways, as can business loans. A business loan for instance might secure itself through the ability to prioritize itself over other financial commitments for the company.
