How To Get A Cheap Loan

As we all know, unfortunately no loan is truly ``cheap`` as the nature of a loan means you will always have to pay back what you borrow plus interest. However exactly how much you pay back depends on many factors. By knowing some of the many things that impact on the cost of your loan, you are in a better place to try and find the best low cost loan plan that suits you.

Loan Amount

The loan amount, i.e. the amount you borrow, usually impacts on your loan annual interest rate (APR). Often the larger the loan amount the smaller the APR, although you may well be paying back more interest over the term of the loan due the larger capital balance borrowed. So in this case it is important you borrow the full amount of money you require from the start to avoid having multiple loans at the same time with large APR’s. If you require a large loan it is likely you may have to offer some security to a lender, this would normally be your home or a house you own and rent out and are termed secured loans. Likewise if you cannot get an unsecured loan and are a homeowner you may be able to consider a secured loan, as they can offer larger amounts and longer repayment periods. However secured loans carry the same risks as a mortgage in the event of defaulting on your repayments.

Loan Term

By extending the loan term you will reduce your monthly repayments, although by shortening the loan term you will make the loan cheaper over the term of the loan because you will pay less interest back in total. It is important you know exactly how much you can afford to pay back each month to ensure you get the best value while the loan runs, without straining your cash flow too much.

Credit Score

For the lowest rates from many lenders you will need a good credit score, this means that you have been keeping up payments on your debts and do not have any mortgage arrears or defaults. If unfortunately you have missed credit payments, CCJ`s or mortgage arrears this will impact on the cost of your loan. Usually the more adverse credit items you have and the more recent they are, the higher the rate may be on any loan offered to you.

Electoral Role

Although not the first thing people think of it is important that you appear on the electoral role, many lenders use this element within their loan decision process as well as how long you have remained at the same address.
