in Loans
Hi all
I wondered if anybody can give me a bit of advice. Because of Covid I have basically run out of cash before my house was sold. I have now exchanged contracts but the bank are not prepared to offer me an overdraft. There is several hundred thousand of equity in the house and I just need a short term loan to get me over the next few weeks until completion.
Any ideas gratefully received.
Thanks
Paul

"A very good song", is that the original Alice Cooper version or the Daphne and Celeste cover?1 -
