Pros and cons

Pros

  • A lower starting rate. Its comparison rate starts at 6.30%, below the typical 8.63%, and the comparison rate counts the standard fees too, so it's a fair guide to a lower overall cost.
  • One rate for everyone. Everyone approved gets 6.20%, so the rate you see is the rate you get.
  • A fixed rate. Your repayments stay the same for the whole loan, which makes it easier to budget.
  • Extra repayments. Paying more than the minimum pays the loan off sooner and cuts the interest you pay.
  • Redraw. You can take back extra repayments later if you need the money.
  • A soft check on your rate. You can see the rate you'd get without it showing on your credit report.

Cons

  • A lower limit. Up to $80,000, less than the typical $100,000, so it may not cover a larger purchase.
  • Secured against an asset. That usually keeps the rate down, but the lender can take the asset if you can't repay.
  • An early repayment fee. Paying the loan off early or refinancing can cost a fee, which cuts into what you save by repaying sooner.
  • A $25 late payment fee. Setting up automatic repayments avoids it.
