What Is a Personal Loan?

Understanding how personal loans work – and how MitchMarket Finance can help

Get the facts on personal loans in Australia–types, benefits, and how to apply with MitchMarket Finance.

The Fridge broke. The wedding date’s set. The car won’t start–and the repair bill is bigger than expected. Life does not always give you time to plan, but having access to the right finance options can make all the difference.

That’s where personal loans comes in. Designed to cover life’s planned (and unplanned) expenses, they offer a simple way to borrow what you need and pay it back in manageable steps.

At MitchMarket Finance, we believe finance should be fast, flexible, and stress-free.

 

Types of Personal Loans: Secured vs Unsecured

Secured vs Unsecured Personal Loans

There are two main types of personal loans:

  • Secured Loans:
    • Backed by an asset like a car, secured loans often come with lower interest rates and greater borrowing power.
  • Unsecured Loans:
    • No asset is required here. These loans are ideal for quick, flexible access to funds–though rates may slightly higher.
