How do bond loans work?
Bond loans are a form of small personal loan. The money is lent to you for the purpose of paying the bond on a rental property.
A Swoosh rental bond loan can be paid back over 12 months and fit in with your pay schedule. There are no hidden charges, monthly fees, and no penalties for paying back your loan amount quicker – so you can pay it back as soon as you are ready.

FAQs
What are bond loans?
Rental bond loans cover the amount of money you need to pay to secure a new rental property before you move into it. Swoosh Finance rental bond loans can be used to cover damages to a previous rental property or the bond of a new rental property. And, depending on where you rent, your bond money could then be used to pay your next few weeks of rent in advance.
How much is a rental bond?
Rental bonds can be quite pricey, which is why you might want to take out a loan to help keep your finances manageable. How much you can be charged for a rental bond will depend on where you live in Australia. While most states limit the cost to 4 weeks’ rent, there are exceptions.
What type of rental can I use my bond loan on?
You can use the cash on any type of rental bond, whether it’s a private rental, apartment complex, or any other type of property. You can also use it to help cover any other expenses like moving costs or storage.
How long does it take for a bond loan to be approved?
It only takes minutes to apply for a bond loan. And as soon as we have all the required information, you should be approved and have the cash in your bank account within the hour.
Is it possible to get a bond loan with no credit check?
At Swoosh, we believe that your credit rating isn’t the ‘be all and end all’. So while we do conduct a credit check when you apply for a rental bond loan, we base your loan offer on your current financial situation not your past credit history.
Do bond loans affect credit score?
Every time a hard inquiry is done on a loan application, including rental bond loans, it is reported on the applicant’s credit history. However, paying back your bond loan on time can actually help to improve your credit score.
