Tic:Toc is a 100% online only non-bank lender that’s offering fast approvals with minimal fees and competitive interest rates.

Generally, online lenders work best with simple loan applications secured by standard properties in capital cities and major regional centres.

Anything slightly outside of standard lending criteria the computer will refer you to their credit assessor or may even reject your application without a providing a specific reason.

Tic:Toc has a partnership with La Trobe Financial which allows them to also offer La Trobe loans to customers who don’t meet their policy, albiet at a higher interest rate. These loans are branded ‘CO:Lab’.

How do Tic:Toc’s home loans compare?

What types of home loan do they have?

Tic:Toc offers two simple loan types: variable rate and fixed rate home loans for live-in (owner-occupiers) and investors.

Tic:Toc’s Live-in variable home loan is a basic variable rate loan with competitive interest rates and no application, assessment or valuation fees. You can also add an offset account for $10 per month.

Their Live-in fixed home loan can be fixed from a year up to 5 years after which it rolls to a variable principal and interest loan. It features free additional repayments up to $20,000 and free unlimited redraw facilities. An offset account is available with this product for $10 per month.

They also have an Investment variable and Investment fixed home loan with an interest-only term available with all their loan products.

Their CO:Labs loans offered by La Trobe Financial are available for borrowers who have a complex situation, bad credit history or cannot prove their income. These loans have higher interest rates and we recommend that you speak to a mortgage broker as you may be able to get a better deal.

Tips for applying with Tic:Toc

• Tic:Toc home loans are suitable for borrowers with a clean credit file and with higher deposits/equity looking to refinance their home loans for up to 80% of the property value.
• Mostly only suitable for PAYG borrowers with readily available payslips and self-employed borrowers with at least two years’ tax returns and consistent income.
• Anything not straight forward and the computer may reject your application without a specific explanation. At which point, a credit assessor may look into your application and supporting documents which can result in the same turn around time as a traditional lender.
• You should constantly monitor your interest rates if you have a home loan with them. Some online lenders in the past have played games with the interest rates for their existing customers.
