Joint Loans

Am I Eligible for a Joint Loan?

If you’re researching your borrowing options or seeking a loan to help you reach your financial goals, then you may have wondered whether you may be eligible for a Joint Loan. A Joint Loan can often mean that you and your partner are able to borrow more money than you would individually, so if you meet the criteria, it could mean you can renovate your kitchen or take a holiday.

How a Joint Loan could benefit you

Applying for a Joint Loan as a couple can often help you to secure a larger amount of capital than if you were applying for a personal loan individually. This is because the lender is able to consider both you and your loan partners income. As you are both committing to repaying the Joint Loan in its entirety, they may feel more confident accepting your loan application for a larger amount of money.

A Joint Loan can be used for a wide range of purposes such as paying for home improvements. With a Joint Loan, you could invest in your property by getting a much-needed extension for your growing family, pay for any repairs or give your home a makeover with a fresh, new look.

A Joint Loan can also contribute to or cover the costs if you are planning to take the family away for a week in the sun. Or, perhaps you or a family member is tying the knot, then a Joint Loan can help to pay for the special wedding day.

Many people have also used their Joint Loan amount to pay for large or expensive personal items such as a new car to help you get from A to B. Even if you possess a bad credit score or have been declined, you may be able to secure a Joint Loan with Evolution Money. You could even use it to consolidate debts into a more manageable monthly repayment; however, you should be aware that the total amount you are expected to repay may increase due to an extended loan term.

Evolution Money Joint Loan Criteria

Do I qualify for a Joint Loan?

If a Joint Loan from Evolution Money sounds like something you’d be interested in, then take a look at our following criteria to find out whether you are eligible.

To apply for any of our secured homeowner loans (including individual and Joint Loans), you must:

• Be aged 21 or over
• Own your home
• Live in the UK
• Be able to afford the repayments comfortably from your regular income

At Evolution Money, we pride ourselves on our high-level of customer service and look at more than just the numbers when assessing loan applications. So if you’ve experienced bad credit in the past or have existing loans, then you may still be eligible for one of our Joint Loans.

Before you apply for a Joint Loan

Although there are many advantages to taking out a Joint Loan, you should be aware of the size of the commitment and that late or missed payments can cause more severe financial problems.

Before applying for a Joint Loan, ensure that both you and your partner understand that you are both 100% responsible for repaying the loan amount and are able to do so comfortably.  A clear understanding of the loan terms and conditions will help to avoid any future complications, especially if there are changes in circumstance such as a breakdown in the relationship, illness or divorce.

If you personally fit the criteria and are able to secure the loan amount you require and comfortably afford the monthly repayments yourself, then you may decide to apply for an individual loan rather than a Joint Loan. This may prove more straightforward as only you will be responsible for repaying the loan.

However, we understand that when it comes to borrowing, each situation is different. So, at Evolution Money, we carry out an affordability check to determine whether you are both able to make the loan repayments and will look at your unique financial situation before progressing any loan applications.
