Check Your Home Loan Eligibility

Check your eligibility for a home loan today with Unloan's comprehensive guide. Understand our requirements and improve your chances of loan approval.

We believe home loans should be easy to get, and easier to live with. To determine whether Unloan is a good fit for your needs, we have an eligibility criteria.

Your Identity

  • Be over the age of 18.
  • Hold a valid Australian Drivers License or an Australian Passport.
  • Have an Australian residential address.

Your Credit Check

If you possess a good credit history, it's likely that you will meet this specific section of our criteria with ease.

However, should you have concerns with your credit history, we recommend addressing them prior to applying, as this could impact the outcome of your application. You can check your credit rating and the accuracy of information held by crediting reporting bodies such as Equifax, Ilion and Experian, or other third party services.

Your Income

If you receive regular income, you need to provide acceptable documents to verify your income such as bank statements and payslips. To find out what documents we accept, visit our income verification page.

Your Property

  • You're purchasing a home
  • You're refinancing an existing home loan.
  • You have at least 20% deposit & the loan is for 80% or less of the property value. Depending on the location of your property, or the type of property you're purchasing, the deposit required may be higher, or you may be ineligible.
  • The loan amount is between $10,000 and $10,000,000. Total borrowings per customer across all Unloan loans is limited to $10,000,000.

Please note:

  • We do not offer construction loans (including off the plan) at this stage.
  • We do not participate in the Home Guarantee Scheme, Victorian Homebuyer Fund or other government home-buyer assistance schemes.
  • If you are eligible for the First Home Buyer Grant, these funds can't contribute to your 20% deposit. Please speak to your conveyancer on how best to approach this.
