High Lending Charge (HLC)

High Lending Charge (HLC)

High Lending Charge (HLC)

A higher lending charge is applied by lenders when the loan extended to a borrower reaches a higher percentage than the typical percentage of the property. For example, if you borrow more than 75% of the original property value, you may be subject to a higher lending charge which will protect the induvial or company you are lending against if you default on your mortgage.

Think carefully before securing other debts against your home. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or any other debt secured on it.
