Key features

The First Option Bank’s BeGreen Home Improvement loan offers a loan term of 1-10 years and a 8.04% p.a. variable interest rate (8.29% p.a. comparison rate*).


Eligible customers could borrow as little as $2,000 for smaller projects, or as much as $100,000 for your needs. The 8.04% p.a. variable interest rate (8.29% p.a. comparison rate*) may be on the higher side as it’s an unsecured loan and you don’t have to put up an asset as collateral. However, you could score a more competitive deal with a 5.99% p.a. variable interest rate (6.23% p.a. comparison rate*) if you already have a First Option mortgage. 


This green loan also comes with a tonne of handy features, such as a redraw facility and no monthly fees. It also allows you to make extra repayments if you’d like to pay off your loan sooner. Just be aware that there is an upfront fee of $175.

WARNING: The Comparison Rate combines the lender's interest rate, fees and charges into a single rate to show the true cost of a personal loan. The comparison rates displayed are calculated based on a loan of $30,000 for a term of 5 years or a loan of $10,000 for a term of 3 years as indicated, based on monthly principal and interest repayments, on a secured basis for secured loans and an unsecured basis for unsecured loans. This comparison rate applies only to the example or examples given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan.
