Types of Loans |
|
In days gone by one had to save to acquire a home or anything of value.
Almost two thirds of the life was spent in cringing and saving to buy a
place of one's own. Today the situation is entirely different.
Everywhere the media is loud about fulfilling your dreams with loans of
various types to suit any pocket.
A loan is a transaction of money from a lender to a borrower for any
valid purpose. The borrower has to pay a certain percentage of interest
periodically, and also pay back the initial amount over an agreed time
with some specific terms. The lender can be a bank, a government
organization or any private institution. A conventional loan is a loan
that is not backed by the federal government.
An FHA loan is insured by the Federal Housing Administration. These are
limited loans. A jumbo loan on the contrary is a loan that exceeds the
limits set by the Federal National Mortgage Association or the Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation guidelines.
Loan used for the construction of a home is called the construction
loan. This type of loan changes into a permanent one after the home is
completed.
Loans can be unsecured or secured. In the unsecured loans the risk is
higher for the creditor. They assess your income and your repayment
capacity and lend you the amount. The monthly installments are higher
and the duration of the repayment is shorter than secured loans. Many
companies compete in providing these types of loans. The secured loans
are very strict with the time. They provide loans for almost any reason
with an asset of yours as a guarantee. The risk in going for a secured
loan is high for the borrower. There is a chance of losing the asset
that can be a house, important documents or any other material of value.
Before going for a loan many thing s have to be considered. You should
have a very clear picture of the interest rate, the type of rate, the
terms and conditions, the down payment. Also get information on any
insurance required by the lender, any associated fees etcetera. You
should also have the resources to repay the loans on time. This will
generate a good result financially.
Loans should be taken only when absolutely necessary. Avoid taking more
than one loan at a time. Home loan, education loan, car loan and loans
for starting or improving an existing business are some examples of
loans.
