Collateral Loans In Orange County
Posted on September 7, 2014
A collateral loan offered at a pawnshop or pawnbroker can be a quick, convenient and confidential way for an individual to obtain a short-term, small loan at a usually lower interest rate. For this reason they are and have been for quite some time, a popular way for persons in need to receive the cash they require for any number of situations.
Simply put, a collateral loan works like this: customers pledge property as collateral and in return pawnbrokers lend them money. Once the customer pays back the loan and all interest accrued, their merchandise is returned to them. If the customer elects not to redeem his or her collateral, there is no credit consequence to the borrower and the pawnshop then can sell the item at a valued price to other retail customers.
At a reputable pawnshop, these loans are safe, secure and beneficial to all parties involved. Legitimate pawnbrokers are highly regulated and governed by several federal laws that apply to other financial institutions. In addition to federal laws and regulations, most pawnbrokers are licensed and regulated by state and local authorities as well. Always make sure you are dealing with a licensed pawnbroker before entering into any loan agreement.
Collateral loans with a pawnbroker are beneficial beyond their loan interest and short term rates. They are also beneficial to the consumer in that they impose a standard of discipline on the borrower that other unsecured loans do not. They do not cause people to overextend themselves on credit or go into bankruptcy as the loan is only given on collateral of an item of equal value.
Many pawnshops will offer collateral loans on several different items including electronics, firearms, musical instruments and much more.
