Best Homeowner Loans - Our Top Picks
If you are a homeowner with a mortgage and you are looking to borrow in excess of £10,000 for home improvements then a homeowner loan may be an option for you.

Over recents years the interest rates on homeowner loans (also known as secured loans or second charge mortgages) have come down so today they are comparable with personal loan rates.

With a personal loan, this is typically unsecured finance where the loan terms will range from 1 to 7 years dependent on lender and where borrowing is normally capped at £25,000.

If you are a homeowner with an existing mortgage, and you are looking to borrow over a longer term than 7 years, or where you wish to borrow more than £25,000, and remortgaging is not an option then the homeowner route may be an option for you. With this type of loan like your mortgage the debt is secured on your home.
