Terminology.
Wondering what a word means? We've got that covered too.
We try to keep the jargon to zero, but there are words that you will need to know their meaning. Did you know the word "mortgage" means "death pledge" in Old French?! Spooky. Anyway, use below to find words you may not know the meaning of. We got you.

Enforcement Agents
Enforcement Agents have another name you may be more familiar with, your friendly neighbourhood Bailiff. They are assigned by the court to visit your home to recover debts in the form of money or goods.
We at TRDG will show you how to handle these guys legally. Search Bailiff in the search bar to find some of our key articles, guides and tips.
Equity
Using property as the example, equity is the difference between the amount owed on your property and your property market value.
Here’s an example:
If your property is valued at £300,000 and you owe £250,000 on your property, your equity is £50,000.
