What to weigh up

Its sharpest variable rate sits above the market median of 6.09% p.a. today, so it pays to compare.
No offset account surfaced across the tracked products, which can matter if you hold steady savings.
Extra repayments don't surface on the tracked products, which can limit how fast you pay down.
Online-only model, so there's no branch network if you prefer face-to-face service.
The advertised rate isn't always the rate you'll be approved for, so it can depend heavily on your deposit and profile.
Fees and conditions vary by product, so the headline rate alone doesn't tell you the true cost.

Who Loans.com.au suits

Loans.com.au tends to suit borrowers comfortable banking online who want the lower overheads reflected in the rate. As always, the right loan depends on your deposit, your purpose, and the features you'll actually use, so compare it against the wider panel before you commit.

Who should look elsewhere

You may do better elsewhere if its sharpest variable rate currently sits above the market median of 6.09% p.a., and no offset account surfaces across the tracked products, and the advertised rate may not be the rate you're approved for once your deposit and profile are assessed. If your deposit is small, you're an investor, or you want interest-only, the rate Loans.com.au actually offers can be higher than the headline, so it's worth comparing the wider market before deciding.
