What might a secured loan client look like?
This is a summary of how a typical referral journey might work for you:
As secured loans are secured against a property, your client will most likely already own their own home, and will probably have an existing mortgage. This is why secured loans are also often known as second charge mortgages, since a purchase mortgage is usually tied to the property already. Most commonly, secured loans are used for home improvements, to consolidate debt, or even for holidays. In fact, the list is almost endless!

Case Study – Secured Loans
Read more below about a real-life client who found the right solution with one of our secured loans:
Mr and Mrs Livingstone from Leeds needed to extend their house due to a new baby arriving. Their credit report was good with some existing unsecured credit (cards and a loan).
Employment status – Employed with stable incomes
Property valuation – £700,000
Mortgage balance – £302,000
Mortgage Type – Repayment mortgage, BRT with HSBC, 0.1% above base rate
Loan sourced – Annual rate 5.5% and LTV 52.2%
Using this information, Fluent arranged a low-cost second charge mortgage for £63,000 over 24 years. By also clearing the customers’ existing credit, they obtained the funds for their extension and reduced their outgoings by £185pcm.
The Livingstones’ received great benefits; they protected their low rate mortgage, obtained the loan for their extension and reduced their monthly outgoings.
And there were benefits for the broker, too, who received a healthy commission payment. The clients were given the best advice by offering a second charge solution from an expert adviser. This is great for relationship building with clients; the broker is now in a position to revisit and arrange a remortgage when the client is able to.
