Secured Loan
A secured loan is a loan where the borrower (you) offers a collateral (asset, your home) to which the lender has access in the event of the borrower (you) fails to make the loan repayments. Your home would be considered security and, therefore, can be claimed by the lender if * default occurs. Secured loans are as the name suggests, secured on your home.
