Commercial and residential property owners looking to remodel or expand often do so using property development loans to meet their financing needs.

A homeowner loan is a personal loan taken out against the equity in your property. Also known as secured loans, these are offered in exchange for you offering your home as collateral. Securing the loan with your home enables you to borrow substantial amounts of money for long periods. Moreover, because the lender puts a charge on your home as security, it offers very good interest rates and manageable terms.
Currently you can borrow up to the maximum limit of 95% of the equity in your home.
