Do you have plans to make a major purchase this year? You may be thinking of purchasing some high tech equipment and gadgets for your home, buying a new vehicle, kitting out your home with some new furniture, or even treating yourself to an expensive holiday. However, with household finances tighter than ever for many people you may find that the chances of being able to save the money that you need upfront are slim.
The good news is that there are still ways of financing that major purchase even if you do not have the money upfront, and if you do your research you could find that it costs very little – or even nothing – for the privilege of being able to spread your repayments. There are a number of solutions available for those that want to make a major purchase but do not have the cash available upfront, and you will find that your needs and circumstances will help to determine the most suitable solution for your needs.
One of the ways in which you can finance your next major purchase is with a 0% purchase credit card. These cards enable you to enjoy an extended period of interest free credit, such as twelve months, and this means that you will have plenty of time within which to repay the money that you spend on your purchase. Providing you clear the balance in full within the interest free period you will pay nothing for your borrowing. If, however, you do not clear your balance within the interest free period, any remaining balance will be charged at the standard variable rate.
If you prefer a more structured way to finance your purchases then you may find that a personal unsecured loan is the right solution. You can borrow the money that you need and choose a repayment term to suit you. You can then make monthly repayments for the agreed term. In the current financial climate obtaining unsecured loans may be difficult, however, particularly if you have damaged credit. Therefore you may find that a secured loan is the more suitable option, although you will need to have a homeowner to take one of these out. Again, you can choose your repayment term and then make monthly repayments on the loan until it has been repaid.
In addition to credit cards and loans you may also find that you can get other forms of finance. For example, if you are purchasing a car you can look at dealership finance, or if you are purchasing furniture or gadgets you may find that the retail offers finance. The important thing is that you work out which financial solutions you are eligible for and which are likely to offer both affordability and suitability before you make a decision.
