Second charge lending is getting a lot of attention

There has been a flurry of activity in the second charge loan sector recently as lenders look to re-price their products downwards. We are pleased to inform you second charge loans are at their lowest rates the sector has ever seen.

Great news for borrowers indeed, this is without doubt one of the contributing factors to second charge’s rapid growth over the last five years. This type of loan has been getting less expensive as competition for business intensifies, plus new funding sources are coming into the market rapidly.
