Pros and cons

Pros

  • A lower starting rate. Its comparison rate starts at 6.00%, below the typical 7.99%, 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 6.00%, so the rate you see is the rate you get.
  • Room to borrow more. Up to $200,000, more than the typical $130,000, which can cover bigger costs in one loan.
  • 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.

Cons

  • A variable rate. Your repayments can rise if the lender lifts its rate, though they can also fall.
  • Secured against an asset. That usually keeps the rate down, but the lender can take the asset if you can't repay.
