Comparing Secured and Unsecured Loans
Posted by nick_niesen on November 8th Nick Foles Jersey , 2010


Are you, like many people, trying to make sense out of your financial situation? Looking for a way to make ends meet? Struggling to keep up your monthly repayments on credit bills? If so, you might well be tempted by the widespread offers of consolidation loans and other easily available lines of credit, which promise you an end to your financial worries.


Unfortunately, life isn't that simple Cheap Jacksonville Jaguars Hats , and taking out a loan without proper consideration of the consequences can be absolutely disastrous for your future financial health. At the very minimum, you should be completely sure of the kind of loan you're applying for, and what the differences between the types might mean in your particular situation.


There are two major kinds of personal loan, Unsecured and Secured. Here we'll take a brief look at the main features of each, to help you be aware of what you're entering into when signing a loan agreement.


Unsecured Loans


These loans are the most common type, and are what most people think of when considering personal loans. They are usually for small to medium amounts Cheap Jacksonville Jaguars T-Shirts , and are aimed at people with good credit ratings, and the sort of financial circumstances lenders love - a steady income large enough to cover repayments, and no great history of debt problems. To get an unsecured loan you don't have to offer any collateral to guarantee repayment, and so the lenders are looking for someone who represents a low risk. As there is no collateral involved, you don't have to be a homeowner. Rates are often attractive, and compare very favourably with other kinds of unsecured finance such as credit cards.


Secured Loans


These loans are only available to homeowners Cheap Jacksonville Jaguars Hoodie , as they're advanced on the basis that if you don't keep up repayments, the lender has the option of seizing your home, and selling it to pay off your debt with the proceeds. They are available for much larger amounts than unsecured personal loans, as you may be able to borrow as much as your home is worth or even more, and the repayment term is usually much longer - up to 25 or even 30 years compared to the 5 years which is more common with unsecured loans. Because of the security given to the lender by laying down your home as collateral, the approval criteria are often less strict Customized Jacksonville Jaguars Jersey , so it's easier to be approved, even with a poor credit rating.


Unfortunately this ready acceptance of applicants with adverse credit can mean that the interest rate charged is higher, as the lenders know that most applicants are unable to get finance elsewhere and will be happy to pay a little extra.


So now we've seen the differences and similarities between the two major kinds of loan, but what does it mean in practice? Basically, you should think very hard about turning unsecured debt into secured debt, and you should also consider carefully any attempts made by a lender to upgrade your unsecured loan application into a secured one. After all Cheap Jacksonville Jaguars Jerseys , defaulting on an unsecured loan will have very damaging consequences for your credit rating, but defaulting on a secured loan would mean losing your home.


In my business, it has been an interesting and very busy two quarters. I've worked with sales managers, marketing executives, professional services practice managers, business development executives Gardner Minshew II Black Jersey , divisional presidents, two dozen sales teams, nine VPs of Sales and directly with 29 CEOs in North America and in Europe. I've seen a lot of deals won and more than a few lost.


When I first meet my clients, I find that some really do not know why they have won or lost business, although often they think they do. Their answers to just a few of my questions provides me with a pretty good idea of where to dig in more deeply. (Note: For me to perform a comprehensive diagnosis and provide appropriate recommendations for improvement, a formal winloss analysis is required.)


In order to help you diagnose why you may have lost one or more deals Ryquell Armstead Black Jersey , I am sharing with you in Letterman-style reverse order, the top ten reasons that salespeople (generally those employed by my clients' competitors) got outsold during the first part of 2003:


? #10. They are depending on capabilities of their product or service to win. This is a prevalent cause of losing. Deals have been lost this way for years and will continue to be lost in the future, unless salespeople begin to understand the critical trap they are stepping into if they assume this strategy. I don't know of too many companies these days that truly have a unique enough product or service that they can depend on that offering to win. And even if they do have that truly unique product, it doesn't take a desperate competitor very long to convey to their market that they have greater capability and a lower price. Once that happens, you're in a capabilities "beauty contest" and your product or service is destined to be considered just a commodity. Winners differentiate their product or service in ways that convey value to executives while protecting that value proposition from attack--and they don't count on their demo or presentation to be the ultimate death knell to their competition.


? #9. They're afraid. Unfortunately a lot of salespeople have been using the down economy and resultant changes in customer buying patterns as an excuse for not selling. They are afraid to get out of their comfort zones and assume a position of strength--to be more persistent, to negotiate for access to the real buyer and to be more persuasive.
