Did you know.....
A loans broker is not usually the actual lender. Once you apply to a broker he will then go to several principle lenders to get you your short term finance. He doesn't work for free. Either he will charge you a brokers fee upfront, some even charge this even if you do not get a loan, or he will receive an introducer's fee from the principle lender who borrows you the advance. Either way, somebody has to pay this fee, and it tends to be the person obtaining financing.
Avoid set up fees, finder's costs or an increase on your interest by dealing directly with the principle lender. The principle lender is the company that actually lends the money. Normally they have not set up fees, or brokers cost that need to be covered, which can save up to £750.00 in up front fees depending on your loan amount, or save you paying a higher rate of interest.
