What is the difference between
an unsecured loan and a secured loan?
You may qualify for a lower rate and/or a higher loan amount if you are approved for a secured loan, including an auto-secured loan, versus an unsecured loan. See below for more information or reach out to your local branch if you have questions.

Secured loans
A secured loan means you are pledging something of value as collateral to your loan to ensure that the loan will be repaid according to the loan’s terms and conditions. Assets such as cars can be used as collateral, and, in some instances, the lender can place a lien on the asset, which will remain in place until the loan has been paid in full, including interest and all applicable fees.
It’s important to remember that if you are unable to repay a secured loan, the lender may be able to sell the pledged collateral to pay off all or part of the loan.

Unsecured loans
Unsecured loans are loans that do not require the borrower to pledge any collateral. If you have been turned down for an unsecured loan, you may still be able to obtain a secured loan if you have an asset that can be used as collateral.
Types of personal loans
A personal loan can meet a variety of needs, including medical emergencies, home improvement projects, vacations, weddings and debt consolidation. BMC Personal Loans may have a solution that fits your needs.

Debt Consolidation
This type of loan helps streamline a variety of debt—from medical bills to credit card payments—into a single monthly payment solution.

Covering Unexpected Expenses
Major appliance breakdowns, auto repairs, medical costs (people and pets), and plumbing repairs: All of these costs can be unexpected and could happen at an inconvenient time.

Making Home Improvements
You might not always have sufficient funds to cover potentially value-enhancing investments like new countertops, flooring, or deck additions. Consider making those upgrades a possibility with one of our personal loans.

Paying for a Vacation
Eager to see more of the world, or just another part of the country? Ready to finally book that cruise? Due for a family reunion? Begin planning the trip you’ve been putting off.

Taking care of Wedding Expenses
Sometimes, love just can’t wait for your bank balance to catch up, and wedding costs are often more than we anticipate. Consider a personal loan to help make your dreams come true when you’re planning your dream wedding.
