Loan advice
If you select other when applying for a loan is it always manually reviewed or can the application still be accepted fairly quickly?
The use of loan is for home improvements but also for another use which isn't in the drop down menu so unsure on option selection
Also are you better off applying via an intermediary or directly?
If we were to apply but then in end not need it are you charged full loan amount + full interest or is interest only charged up until the settlement date?
Thank you

Many loan lenders restrict the use - that's why I'm asking which loan lenders are there who would allow the use for a deposit

Hello - thank you for pointing to a relevant channel.
I am looking to draw up a loan agreement so I can loan to a member of my family and wondered if there is a best self use loan agreement template someone can point me to.
I am clear on terms, repayment period etc just wondering if anyone has a suitable template0 -
A personal loan between 2 family members has limited legality and won't enable you to enforce the repayment if they don't want to pay. You might as well just google one, as you are not a licenced lender you can't do much
Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

For all the weight is carries you might as well scribble it out on a piece of paper.

One further consideration is that any interest you charge will be regarded as income to yourself so may figure in your tax calculations. Perhaps there is no interest - then no tax for you to pay. Anything you did charge would factor in to the same bucket as savings interest which of course has tax free allowances unless those are already used up.
