Base rate vs comparison rate
Base rate is the interest rate applied to the loan balance. Comparison rate includes the base rate plus most fees and charges, giving a more realistic all-in cost when comparing loans.
This calculator uses a base rate for estimates. When comparing loan options, consider the comparison rate as well.
This calculator uses a fixed 9.07% p.a. base rate as a general personal-lending benchmark, based on Reserve Bank of Australia Personal Lending Rates data. It is not an average rate specifically for car, boat, caravan or other asset finance.
The rate you receive may be higher or lower depending on your credit profile, asset, loan structure and lender.

No impact on your credit score
Checking your options won't affect your credit score.
Disclaimer: This calculation is a guide only and is based on limited information provided, excluding fees and charges. It does not constitute loan approval or a recommendation. Actual rates, fees and repayments depend on your circumstances and information verified during assessment. A balloon payment reduces regular repayments but leaves an amount payable at the end of the loan term.
The same car refinance product, compared across 70+ lenders, whichever refinance scenario applies to you.
Refinancing may suit Brisbane drivers who already have a car loan and want to review their rate, term, or overall position.
For anyone with an existing car loan wanting to compare their current rate, term and fees against what's available now.
For owners whose vehicle is now worth more than the remaining loan balance. Refinancing may allow access to some of that difference, subject to the lender's assessment - this isn't guaranteed.
For households financing two or more vehicles, where comparing each loan's rate, term and total cost separately can reveal real differences even when repayments look similar.
For vehicles whose use has shifted toward business, or owners refinancing through a company or trust structure. Less common than a standard consumer refinance, but a genuine scenario.
Using a car refinance broker in Brisbane lets you compare refinance options from multiple lenders instead of being limited to your current lender's own offer. Compare The Loan compares your profile across 70+ lenders to identify options that may suit your circumstances, with a licensed finance broker helping you understand your options before you decide whether to proceed.

Compare The Loan provides car refinance comparison services across Redland City and surrounding areas, from the bayside mainland suburbs of Cleveland, Victoria Point and Redland Bay to the Moreton Bay islands — North Stradbroke Island and the Southern Moreton Bay Islands of Russell, Macleay, Lamb and Karragarra. Our service area follows the way Redland residents actually live and travel — along the bay toward Brisbane via Old Cleveland Road and the Cleveland rail line, south toward Logan and the Gold Coast via Mount Cotton Road, and — for island communities — by vehicle barge from Cleveland's Toondah Harbour or Redland Bay's Weinam Creek. Wherever you live in Redland, we can help you compare car refinance options across a panel of 70+ lenders.
Compare Refinance OptionsQuestions specific to comparing car loan refinance in Redland City.
Compare the new loan's interest rate, comparison rate, term and total amount repayable against your current loan, along with any discharge or exit fees on the existing loan and establishment fees on the new one. These figures — not location — determine whether refinancing is worthwhile for a given vehicle and loan.
Refinance applications are assessed in a broadly similar way to a new car loan: lenders look at income, employment, existing commitments and credit history, including the repayment record on the current loan, alongside the vehicle's age, condition and current value relative to the loan balance. This is not location-specific to Redland City.
Typically photo ID, proof of income, recent bank statements, details of the current loan (lender name, account reference, payout/discharge figure), and vehicle details (registration, VIN, current odometer reading). Exact requirements vary by lender and by individual circumstances.
In some cases, yes — if a vehicle's use has shifted toward business purposes, refinancing via an ABN-held entity is a genuine scenario, though it is less common than a straightforward consumer-to-consumer refinance and carries its own regulatory considerations. This is a brief, secondary point for Redland, given the LGA's commercial vehicle evidence (construction as the largest single GRP contributor, and island-servicing tradespeople) is real but modest compared with Logan's or Ipswich's industrial scale.
It depends on the numbers. If a vehicle's current value exceeds the remaining loan balance, refinancing may allow a borrower to access some of that difference as funds, subject to the lender's assessment — but this is not guaranteed and does not mean repayments will fall.
