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.

A lender's assessment looks at income, existing obligations, the credit file, and the asset pledged where there is one. Joint applications combine two incomes and two sets of obligations in the same assessment.
