Have a question?
What is a renovation loan?
A renovation loan is an unsecured loan that is used for the purpose of remodelling or rebuilding your home. Home renovation loans are a very flexible form of finance, so you can spend the disbursed funds on just about any home improvements from kitchen expansions to bathroom remodelling.
Does my credit score impact my rates?
When lenders are assessing and pricing your loan, one of the key factors theyโll often consider is your credit score. If youโve got a reasonably high credit score, youโll be eligible for a lower interest rate - and if you donโt have the best score, youโll likely end up paying a higher rate.
What repayment options do lenders offer?
Most of our lenders let you choose either a 3, 5 or 7 year term which you can repay in monthly, fortnightly or weekly instalments.
Can I pay for renovations with my existing home loan?
Typically, you can only pay for renovations by refinancing or topping up an existing home loan for a larger amount so that these additional funds can be used for home improvements. Alternatively, if your bank allows you to redraw additional payments youโve been making on your home loan, you may be able to use these extra funds to cover renovation costs. This can be a tedious process however, and many lenders charge a fee for doing so.
Topping up your home loan typically costs less than taking out another type of loan, as secured loans generally have lower interest rates than credit cards or personal loans. However, keep in mind that this will increase your existing loan repayments.
An unsecured loan could still be a good option for you however, depending on monthly fees and the interest rate charged by the lender.
