How borrowing works locally

A secured product gives the lender a claim on a named asset, which is why its price is usually lower than an unsecured equivalent.

An application usually asks for identification, income evidence, banking details and a statement of obligations. A mortgage is registered against the property, which is what gives the lender its claim.
