Low-doc loans are a great solution where borrowers can afford the loan repayments but are unable to disclose full income details. Low-doc loans are popular amongst self employed applicants or where they have an irregular income stream.

Equity loans or lines of credit allow borrowers to unlock the equity in their properties for any worthwhile purpose such as renovating, investing, motor vehicles, children's education, etc. These types of products provide a low cost option to other forms of personal lending with the flexibility of allowing interest to capitalise.

Combination or blended loans allow borrowers to spilt their home loan into a partly fixed and variable portions. This provides borrowers with the flexibility of a variable rate product and added certainty of a fixed rate loan.

Fixed rate loans protect borrowers against interest rate rises for a given period of time although work against borrowers when rates fall. Fixed rate loans are popular amongst investors and home owners that require a level of security when forward planning their repayments.

Standard variable rate loans are known for their flexibility and features. Partly fixing, loan splits, offset, additional repayments and redraw are usually standard with this type of product.

Basic variable rate loans are extremely popular due to their low interest rates. The trade-off with these types of products is that they are limited on features.
