If you take a loan first you have two basic options to choose from, you either take an unsecured loan, for what you don’t have to provide any collateral. For this you need a good credit history, as it is more risky for the financial institution you are borrowing from to give you money without having an assurance that it will have it back. Usually an unsecured loan also has higher interest rates because of the higher risks.

If you decide to have a secured loan with lower interest rates and favourable conditions you have to provide a collateral for the bank to assure them that you are able to pay back your dues, even if you get ill or suffer a serious injury, that make you unable to work and earn money. Such a collateral can be a property with a value matching the size of the loan. The term mortgage loan, which is nowdays used simply as “mortgage”, is usually used for a loan backed up with a real estate as a collateral. A mortgage usually has a payback period of 10 to 30 years and other restrictions such as prohibition to sell a real estate if it is under a mortgage.
