Secured Loan

WHat are second charge secured loans

A second charge secured loan is quite often referred to as a second charge mortgage because it is a loan secured against the available equity in a property you own. The security is usually in the form of a second charge mortgage against the property, which means that it sits behind and does not affect the primary (first charge) mortgage.
