Here's what we define as 'other' in the debts and liabilities section in the Unloan application process.

Updated over a month ago

In the debts and liabilities section of the Unloan application, the 'other' category is designated for any obligations that do not fall under common types of debt and liabilities listed in the application.

This includes novated leases. A novated lease is a way you can finance a new or used car. You can make your repayments from your pre-tax salary with approval from your employer under a ‘salary sacrifice’ arrangement. This can effectively reduce your taxable income. It can also allow you to bundle your vehicle’s expenses into one simple payment.

If there any other debts and liabilities you may have that are not categorised and not in the list below, please include them in ‘Other’ in the application process:

  • Home loans

  • Personal loans

  • Car loans

  • Credit cards

  • Lines of credit

  • Store cards

  • Charge cards

  • Personal overdrafts

  • Margin/investment loans

  • Buy now, pay later services (BNPL)

Unloan is a division of Commonwealth Bank of Australia.

Applications are subject to credit approval, satisfactory security and you must have a minimum 20% equity in the property. Minimum loan amount $10,000, maximum loan amount $10,000,000, and total borrowings per customer across all Unloan loans is $10,000,000. (For purchase loans a minimum 10% equity is required - however a Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) premium and higher interest rate apply. In some cases, depending on the property’s location or type, an LMI premium may also be required for LVR between 70.01% to 80%). For loans with Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) the minimum loan amount is $10,000, maximum loan amount is $3,000,000 and total borrowings per customer across all Unloan loans is limited to $3,000,000).

Unloan offers a 0.01% per annum discount on the Unloan Live-In rate or Unloan Invest rate upon settlement. On each anniversary of your loan’s settlement date (or the day prior to the anniversary of your loan’s settlement date if your loan settled on 29th February and it is a leap year) the margin discount will increase by a further 0.01% per annum up to a maximum discount of 0.30% per annum. Unloan may withdraw this discount at any time. The discount is applied for each loan you have with Unloan.

*At Unloan, we do not charge any annual, application, banking, account, transaction, late or exit fees. In certain circumstances you may be required to pay a Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) premium.
