How does the loan work?
The loan is a secured loan with a charge placed against the property for the lifetime of the loan. A first or second charge will be required with the total amount of loans not exceeding 80% Loan to Value (LTV). Normally the charge is placed on the property being improved, however the charge may be secured against an alternative property if necessary.

Confirmation of fees will be provided at time of application. This covers all costs incurred by us in providing the loan, including Legal Fees and Valuation Fees (if required). There are no charges for early repayment of the fees.
Extra help
If you need to find contactors to do the work we may be able to help with our Houseproud scheme (there is a small charge for the use of this scheme).
How soon does the loan need to be repaid?
The loan is repayable over a period of up to five years (or upon the sale of the property if it is sold within this time).
