Pros and cons

Pros

  • Redraw. You can take back extra repayments later if you need the money.
  • No early repayment fee listed. You can pay the loan off early, or refinance, without a penalty. Check the terms to be sure.

Cons

  • Your rate isn't known until you apply. It's set by your credit history and finances, anywhere from 9.99% to 12.99%, and only some people get the starting rate.
  • A $7 late payment fee. Setting up automatic repayments avoids it.
