Need to know
A homeowner loan is secured against your property. Make sure you can afford the repayments for the duration of the loan. YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DON’T KEEP UP WITH YOUR PAYMENTS. THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE SECURING OTHER DEBTS AGAINST YOUR HOME. You may be able to apply for credit that doesn’t need to be secured against your home. Don’t borrow more than you can afford. It’s a good idea to set up a direct debit so never miss a repayment. Remember, if you consolidate your existing borrowing, you may be extending the term and increasing the amount you repay in total.
* According to Ocean, this is based on the average reduction in outgoings on debt consolidation loans on a rolling 12 month basis.
Representative Example: If you borrow £22,150 over 10 years, initially on a fixed rate for 5 years at 8.645% and for the remaining 5 years on the Lender's standard variable rate of 8.695%, you would make 60 monthly payments of £316.93 and 60 monthly payments of £317.31. The total amount of credit is £25403 (this includes a Lender Fee of £595 and a Broker Fee of £2,658). The total repayable would be £38,149.40 (this includes a Lender Exit Fee of £95). The overall cost for comparison is 12.70% APRC representative.
