Working in partnership with Dorset Council

We have worked in partnership with Dorset Council since 2005. In that time, we have lent to homeowners across the district to fund home repairs, home improvements and home energy efficiency measures. Lending council funds ensures a recycling pot of capital, which is repaid and can be lent again. Lendology’s loans for home repairs and renewable energy measures are delivered for people, by people.

The interest rate is set annually by the council. The current interest rate for homeowners in Dorset is 4%. Everyone living in this area will receive the same interest rate, regardless of the loan amount, loan term or personal circumstances. The interest rate is fixed for the term of the loan.
