Are secured loans restricted to cars?

12 August 2008

Secured loans can sometimes be used for more than just car purchases, but this is becoming increasingly rare. Many companies offering secured loans have limited them to car loans only, but there are still others which offer secured loans using a home as security or even other major assets.

It is important that you are not really risking your security when taking out secured loans. It is not meant to be a gamble, merely an assurance for the lender that they will be able to cover some of the costs of the loan if you default. As many secured loans for cars use the car being purchased as security, it is easy to see why so many lenders restrict secured loans to car purchases only.
