Personal
loans for
kicking goals

Whether you are in the market for a new car, an overseas holiday or planning a wedding, a $20,000 personal loan can help foot the bill. Or you might be in an unfortunate situation of having to pay unexpected medical bills or other expenses. Whatever you need it for, it’s reassuring to know that a $20,000 personal loan may be only minutes away!

Secured loan vs. unsecured loan

There are several factors to consider when taking out a $20,000 loan. Firstly, would you prefer a secured loan or an unsecured loan? The difference is a secured loan uses one of your current assets, such as a car or house, as security against the loan. That means if you default on the loan, the lender could take your assets, but it also means you are likely to get a lower interest rate. With an unsecured personal loan, you are not required to provide security for the loan, which will mean you are likely to be charged higher interest rates and fees. It can be a good option if you don’t have any large assets to provide as security. You then need to decide whether to get a fixed rate or variable rate and where to go to get your loan.

As well as banks, there are now many online lenders who can provide quick cash loans at low interest rates. When comparing interest rates between lenders, you’ll need to look at the different comparison rates to get a better idea of the true cost of the loan. The comparison rate allows you to consider the total cost of the loan. As well as the interest rate and the amount of the loan, the comparison rate will account for the loan term, repayment frequency and other fees and charges.

How much can I borrow?

If you don’t need quite as much money you can get a $5,000 personal loan instead, or if you find $20,000 isn’t quite enough, why not get a $30,000 personal loan if you can afford to? In fact, at MoneyMe we offer low-rate personal loans ranging from $5,000 to $50,000 so you can borrow small loans or larger loans, depending on what suits you best. Before you take out your $20,000 personal loan, we suggest you use our free personal loan calculator so you can calculate what your personal loan repayments are likely to be.

The personal loan calculator widget allows you to select the $20,000 personal loan amount (or whatever the total amount is that you want to borrow). Once you’ve chosen the loan amount, you can then select your preferred payment period. The personal loan calculator also allows you to select your interest rate based on your credit history. As an online lender who holds an Australian Credit Licence, MoneyMe believes in fair and responsible lending, so we want to make sure you take out the most suitable loan.
