Products compared here

• Personal loans: A fixed sum repaid on a schedule, usually unsecured, for almost any purpose a lender will accept.
• Mortgage loans: Borrowing against residential property, including how a federally regulated lender tests the file.

How borrowing works locally

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan.

A lender is free to set its own price below the legal ceiling, and it does so according to the risk it reads in the file. Interest on a line of credit accrues only on the drawn portion, not on the unused limit.
