Property



Do you own a house? An office building? Some other form of real estate, such as land? If so, you can offer it as collateral against the cost of your secured loans. Typically, up to 125% of its value can be leveraged, and sometimes you can even obtain more cash if you're considered to be an excellent credit ?risk? by the lender.

Transportation

Similarly, if you have an automobile, boat, or other such transportation-related asset, you may be able to use it as ?security? when applying for your next loan. As long as you own it outright and it's not already being held as collateral by another financial institution, it can be an excellent source of collateral.

Savings Accounts

Even bank accounts, stocks, bonds, and/or certificates of deposit are considered as collateral by some lending institutions. Though all lenders that offer secured loans will need detailed proof of your ownership of the aforementioned items, they can be excellent items to use to obtain cash for emergencies or planned projects.

A Relative's Asset(s)

Finally, one of your close friends or family members may be willing to put up their asset (such as property) as collateral for your secured loans. Though this should be your last choice (unless you're the relative's legal dependent), it's definitely an option, especially if you need money suddenly and you're without assets of your own.
