Tenant loans from The One Stop Money Shop allow you to borrow money even if you are a tenant or living in rented accommodation. 

 

Whilst mainstream lenders and banks might restrict lending to tenants with limited credit scores and because they do not have a permanent residence, we understand they can still be excellent people to lend to.

 

Through our personal and unsecured loans, we offer £400-£2500 repaid over 6-24 months, with same day funding if approved before 3:30pm.

What is a Tenant Loan or Non Homeowner Loan?

A tenant loan is a type of personal loan offering amounts of up to £2,500, but the borrower is eligible whilst living at home with parents or friends or in rented accommodation. In other words, they are a “non-homeowner.” 

 

For many mainstream lenders and banks, they tend to be more strict with borrowers who are living in rented accommodation because they may not have a permanent residence or have built up a significant credit history. But for the 4.5 million tenants in the UK, many of them will still have a very stable income, employment, good credit and can be a good person to lend to.

 

 

A tenant loan is a type of unsecured loans because the loan will not be attached to any physical assets such as a property or a flat. The borrower’s eligibility will be based on their income, employment, affordability, current debt situation and credit score. These things can be checked very quickly, usually through automation, hence decision-making for lenders is often immediate and approvals and funding can be processed usually within hours.

What Are The Benefits of Tenant Loans?

Available to all – Even if you are living in rented accommodation short-term or long-term, you can still get access to credit, whether it is £500, £1,000 or £2,000, which can be used for daily expenses, important purchases or to cover an emergency. You will not be restricted just because you are not a homeowner.

Can help you progress – Maybe you need a loan to help you progress to that next step of buying a house – to help cover legal fees and moving costs. This is where a tenant loan could help see you through.


No risk of losing security – Your loan eligibility is based upon factors such as your current job status, income and affordability, you will not be putting down anything as security and therefore do not risk losing your home or vehicle if you cannot afford to repay your loan.

What Can a Tenant Loan Be Used For?

-To pay for rent

-To pay for bills (see loans to pay household bills)

-To help get you on the property ladder

-To pay for important expenses or purchases

-To help support a loved one

Frequently Asked Questions

How Fast Can You Transfer Funds?

We can offer same day loans or funding within 24 hours for any loans approved before 3:30pm on a work day.

If you have applied on a weekend, we will do our best to complete your loan as soon as possible and this could be on the next working day.

Are Your Tenants Loans Unsecured?

Yes, our loans are unsecured so you do not require any guarantors or security such as vehicles or your home to be eligible. Your eligibility is not based on the value of your assets but rather your income, credit status and affordability.

Do You Run Credit Checks Prior To Approval?

Yes, we will typically run a series of credit checks using Equifax prior to funding and approving a loan.

We are willing to consider customers with bad credit scores but they should have steady employment and regular income in order to make repayments on time and avoid falling into financial difficulty.

Do You Offer Tenant Loans With No Credit Checks?

No, we do not offer loans without credit checks, we will always run credit checks to ensure that a candidate is suitable for one of our loans.

There are alternatives available where no credit checks are required such as secured loans or logbook loans, which use security but these carry risks if not repaid on time. If you need professional advice or debt help, you can speak to charities such as StepChange or Citizen’s Advice Bureau.

Can You Use a Tenant Loans To Pay Off Other Debts?

Yes, you can use our 12 month loans to consolidate or pay off other debts, such as car repairs or household bills.

We do not encourage using our loans to help pay off other loans since this can create a dependency on using loans and credit to stay on top of debts.

With My Credit Score Impact The Rate That I Am Charged?

Yes, typically those customers with good credit may be able to access lower interest rates and be able to borrow higher amounts.

If you have a bad credit score, the interest you are charged may be a little higher than average to manage our risk.

What Happens If I Cannot Repay My Loan?

If you cannot repay your loan, you will be sent an email and SMS follow up and reminder for payment. Our team will contact you a legal amount of times to recover payment and if delayed, your loan could be subject to late fees, penalties, added interest and a negative impact to your credit score.

If you are having financial difficulty, we encourage you to speak to our team as early as possible so that we can offer assistance.
