What Is A Home Improvement Loan?

The last ten years have seen a huge increase in DIY outlets, which was helped when house prices stagnated during the early and mid 1990s. If the property could not be sold then staying put and improving was the answer.

Even with house prices on the up again, there appears to be no let-up in the desire for DIY and home improvement work.

Many of us want to make home improvements to create a more comfortable home, however, the knowledge that the value of the property may also increase, gives an added incentive to continually improve.

Clearly DIY plays an important part in improving the home and the enthusiast can easily undertake smaller jobs such as painting and decorating, shelving and cupboards and laying patios. However, it is the bigger jobs that are usually the domain of specialist firms. These include:

  • Conservatories.
  • Double glazing.
  • Central heating.
  • Fitted bathrooms and kitchens.
  • Fireplaces.
  • Fitted bedrooms.
  • Rewiring and plumbing.

These larger jobs obviously lead to greater costs. So how are these improvements, both large and small, paid for? There are, in fact, several options available to you if you want to raise the cash to improve your home:

  • Further advance on mortgage.
  • Unsecured loan (flat rate).
  • Secured Loan (variable rate).
  • Homeowner Loan.
  • Remortgaging.

To Improve or Not?

Home improvements are made to increase or improve the standard of living accommodation of the occupier. Once a major improvement is made it is unlikely that the owners will move quickly, although in today's more fluid job market, moving is often inevitable. So, if you have to move, do not expect to make money, or even break even, on the cost of your home improvements. Any improvements you make may certainly help in the sale of your property, but remember a perspective purchaser's taste could be very different from your own. Your home is for living in so improve for your own pleasure and comfort, not necessarily for financial gain.

How do I Know if a Home Improvement Loan is Right for Me?

A Secured Loan for home improvement purposes may be a good idea if you want to improve your home without the hassle of moving. You may wish to extend your home, improve your garden or perhaps have a new kitchen or bathroom, all of which can be very expensive. If you do not have the funds to accommodate these improvements then a home improvement loan could be just what you need. Instead of having to find a large amount of cash, you can spread the cost of your home improvements over a period that's best for you. You may even be able to reduce your existing credit repayments by funding your home improvements as part of a Consolidation Loan.

I Have a Bad Credit Rating and Don't Think I Would Qualify for a Loan

While it's true that many lenders won't write a Homeowner Loan to people with a bad credit rating, there are many other lenders who specialise in such loans. They typically charge a higher interest rate but the benefits of getting your debts under control often outweigh the additional costs involved.

Whatever your need, why not complete a No Obligation Application with Essential Loans today. Our friendly staff are here to help, finding a Secured Loan tailored to your personal circumstances.

THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE SECURING OTHER DEBTS AGAINST YOUR HOME. YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON A MORTGAGE OR ANY OTHER DEBT SECURED ON IT.
