Investment finance made simple

Balloon payments.

What is a balloon payment?

A balloon payment is a larger lump sum paid at the end of the loan term. Choosing this structure can reduce your regular repayments during the life of the loan.

Why do borrowers use them?

Balloon payments can improve short term cash flow and lower monthly commitments upfront, which may suit some borrowers depending on their plans and financial position.

It is important to understand that a balloon payment can increase the total interest paid over the loan term, and the remaining balance will still need to be repaid at the end of the agreement.

Is it the right option for you?

Every borrower’s situation is different. The right loan structure depends on your goals, repayment strategy, and future plans. Guidance is available to help you understand the benefits, considerations, and long term impact before making a decision.

Secured loans

A secured loan uses an asset, such as a vehicle or property, as security against the loan. Because this lowers the lender’s risk, secured loans often come with more competitive interest rates and borrowing limits.

Unsecured loans

With an unsecured loan, no asset is provided as security. Approval is generally based on your financial position and credit history, which can mean higher interest rates and lower borrowing capacity compared to secured lending.

Fixed rate loans

A fixed rate loan keeps your interest rate and repayments consistent for an agreed period, helping provide more certainty around budgeting and repayment planning.

Guidance Made First Home Easy

"Todd and his team were exceptional from start to finish assisting us with our mortgage approval. This was our first home purchase and we were very new to the process, however Todd and his team helped us every step of the way. We hit a few unexpected snags due to my partners visa status along the way and Todd managed to find solutions to help us achieve a mortgage without being lumped with an excessive government surcharge. We are truly grateful for Todd and his team and highly reccomend them to assist in securing a mortgage at an excellent rate."
