Are you looking to get a loan from Diamond Banc? Diamond Banc strives to make each step of the jewelry equity loan as quick and easy to understand as possible. First, to understand how interest rates are calculated, you should know what Loan to Value Ratio is because it plays a big role.
How Does Loan To Value Ratio (LTV) Affect the Interest Rate?
LTV otherwise know as “loan to value” is the amount borrowed versus the amount loaned. The difference between these amounts may be large or negligible, depending on each situation. Sometimes, your high-end jewelry may be valued at much more than you were looking to take out in a a loan.
Therefore, when a borrower needs less than Diamond can offer, the interest rate will decrease. This is because Diamond Banc’s risk decreases. Basically, risk is the assumed depreciation a lender will suffer if the loan is forfeited. Therefore, if a borrower takes out a loan smaller than what Diamond Banc can offer, the interest rate is much cheaper.
What Type of Jewelry Makes Good Collateral?
In addition, certain high end jewelry may demand a lower interest rate. This is due to some items having a more competitive market value. This means when a high-value jewelry item is pre-owned, Diamond Banc may offer a lower rate to beat competitors. Some examples of highly sought-after jewelry that make great loan collateral are Rolex watch models, high quality gold or other precious metals.
