Due to the current recession many individuals think that bad credit loans no longer exist.
It makes sense that many think this, as bad credit loans, bad credit mortgages and bad credit remortgages precipitated the credit crunch. Underwriting in the homeowner loan industry in general caused much of the financial crisis that most of the civilised world has experienced in the course of the last two odd years.
All through history it has been impossible for non homeowners to be accepted for a bad credit loan. Even tenants with great credit ratings find it difficult to obtain a loan now. Lenders really want some sort of security when they grant a loan.
However for homeowners the situation is different. Until 2007 it was fairly easy for a homeowner to obtain a bad credit secured loan up to a maximum 75% LTV, even with extremely poor credit. Some homeowners who were on the verge of having their property repossessed were saved at the last moment by receiving a bad credit loan.
Bad credit secured loans are not so easy to obtain now as they were then, but so saying there is some availability even now.
Bad credit secured loans are available at between 60% to 70% LTV for homeowners with minor credit problems.
Blemain Finance and First European Securites are the two remaining secured loan lenders who give bad credit secured loans to homeowners with any number of adverse credit units registered against them.
These bad credit secured loans have a maximum limit of 23,000 and a maximum LTV of 50% of the value of the property being given as security.
These bad credit loans can really help a homeowner in a sticky situation, and can see them through the credit crunch.In the long run they can help homeowner's credit rating, and they are still available.
