Personal Loans

Have you ever needed to borrow money for a personal expense, like paying off high-interest debt, financing home improvements, covering unexpected expenses, or maybe a holiday away? That's where personal loans come in handy! Personal loans are loans that are borrowed for personal use, rather than business purposes. They are usually unsecured, which means that they don't require any collateral, and can be used for a variety of purposes.

Depending on the lender and your creditworthiness - you can expect different interest rates, repayment terms, and borrowing limits. To qualify for a personal loan, you generally need to have a good credit score and a stable source of income, but some lenders may offer loans to those with less-than-perfect credit.

If you're considering taking out a personal loan, it's important to carefully weigh the costs and benefits. While personal loans can be a useful tool for managing your finances and achieving your goals, they come with interest rates and fees that can add up over time. You don't want to end up in a worse financial position than before you took out the loan. So, before applying for a personal loan, make sure you have a solid plan for repayment and ensure that it's a financially sound decision for your personal situation.

Icon expand icon

Our team always delivers the best interest rate for your situation, and take the guess work out by presenting our clients with the best options from multiple lenders/banks. We're not tied to specific products or providers, so we are able to focus on truly understanding your situation and maximising the benefits of a loan product. To top it off, we provide our expertise free of charge! If you aren’t currently in a position to finance a loan, or need some time to fully understand your choices - you can leave with all your options on the table.

How do you get paid? Do I have to pay you?
Icon expand icon

Beck McLean Finance is all about transparency. We don’t charge our clients any fees. This is due to lenders/banks providing us with commission on any loans we introduce to them. That means we receive a percentage of the loan amount (paid by the lender) on successful completion of the loan. We’re often asked; do you get paid more for using certain banks over others? The answer is no, all banks pay nearly identically.

What information will I need to supply?
Icon expand icon

As we focus on your holistic financial situation at Beck McLean Finance, there isn’t always a one size all fits approach. However, as a general idea, the supporting documentation that will need to be supplied include: identification (such as a driver’s license or passport), statements of income (such as PAYG statements), and bank statements. Beck McLean uses cutting-edge technology to ensure that delivering these documents to us is safe, secure and streamlined.

How can I minimise the interest paid on my loan?
Icon expand icon

Whilst we are not financial advisors, we can provide you with insight on the features of loan products and how to best utilise them. There are some ways to minimise interest paid, such as (but not limited to):

1. Refinancing to another bank as banks may offer a lower interest rate to incentivise new clients

2. Borrowing under 80% of a loan (this may vary between banks)

3.Utilising an offset account so that the funds deposited will be subtracted from the loan amount when calculating the interest paid. Note that these funds will not receive interest like a savings account.

What is the best way to structure my loan?

We focus on your entire financial situation and goals, not just the loan - so each time you seek our advice, you will be provided personalised options. For the best response to this common query, reach out to one of our brokers to utilise their expertise.
