^ 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. This discount is applied to each loan that you have with Unloan. If you have multiple loans (e.g. one investor and one live-in loan), they will each have a discount calculated based on when you settled each loan. Unloan may withdraw this discount at any time.

*Comparison rate is calculated on a $150,000 secured loan over a 25 year term. WARNING: This comparison rate is true only for the examples given and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate.
