What is a second legal charge?

A second legal charge is secured against the remaining equity in the property after the debt of the first legal charge is satisfied. The first charge lender has to permit a second charge to be instituted. Vector does not currently lend against second charges.

What is a first legal charge?

A first legal charge gives the lender the right to take control of the property if the Borrower defaults. The lender has precedence above all others and can appoint a receiver.

What is a non-status loan?

Non-status bridging loans do not take the status of the borrower in making a decision. Vector will take an overall view on the case but mainly on the property value. That means a CCJ or previous defaults will not necessarily lead to a rejection of your application.

Yes. You need to be represented via a solicitor.

No. Vector does not charge part or early repayment penalties.
