    I heard about this from a website. BAsically the lender does not require extensive documentation for loan approvals, but the borrower pays a higher interest rate.

    Anyone have any idea if this sort of financing is common and how much higher the interest rates might be compared to regular financing?

    Thanks

    It is very common today.

    Rates are not really much more than normal lending nowadays.

    I suggest, if you are considering this, you speak to a broker and see if it is what you really need.

    As Simon mentioned often the rates of interest can be less than standard as you tend to have more equity and considered by some a lesser risk.

    The low doc market is the fastest growing and rates just keep coming down. A few of the lenders will give you exactly the same rate as a fully documented loan but with other restrictions like lower maximum loan amounts and lower LVRs. At 80% LVR or leas, they are as cheap as standard loans. Higher LVRs see rates loaded by 0.5% and up… I have seen some in double figures so be careful you don’t take the wrong one.
