What is a Home Improvement Loan?

A home improvement loan is a personal loan that you can use to improve, repair, and maintain your residence.

A home is the largest investment that most people make. As such, fixing up your house can often be a good decision. Plus, a well-maintained house is less likely to need costly repairs.

If you’re ready to start the lengthy process of home improvement sooner rather than later, a home improvement loan is a good option to consider.

Types of Home Improvement Loans

There are two types of home improvement loans from Republic Finance: secured and unsecured.

To apply for a secured loan, you would need to provide some form of collateral, such as personal property or an automobile. Secured loans are beneficial because you can sometimes qualify for a larger loan amount.

An unsecured loan, on the other hand, requires no collateral. Both types of loans are popular for homeowners!

1. For typical applicants, loan offers feature quotes for loans with terms of 12 to 60 months. As an example, if you borrowed $7,000 with a 30.04% Annual Percentage Rate (“APR”) and a 60-month term, your payments would be $226.47 per month. This example is based on an average customer with good credit. APRs will not exceed 35.99%. Loan terms (e.g., rates, origination fees and max. loan amounts) apply based on your state of residence and may vary depending on your creditworthiness. Optional voluntary products are available for purchase with any secured loan extended, based on qualifying factors. Not all consumers will qualify. Additionally, not all consumers will be eligible to apply for an online unsecured loan through Republic Finance’s website. Secured loan applications and closings must be completed with a branch employee, and not on our website. Secured loans will have collateral and insurance requirements. The purchase of any required insurance from Republic Finance is optional. Auto-secured loans require a first lien on a vehicle that is titled in your name, and which has valid insurance. Current customers: some current customers may not be eligible for a loan refinance. All refinance applications and closings must be completed with a branch employee, and not on our website.
