Driving savings

With the cost of fuel rising, more Australians are considering the potential savings of driving a hybrid or electric car. Our Green Car Loan rewards you with a lower interest rate than our standard car loan to say thanks for making a greener choice. In fact, the interest saving could contribute to the cost of purchasing the car.

Depending on the cost of the vehicle, you may be eligible to borrow more to cover the cost of a charging station or power wall. 

You can apply if you:

  • Are over 18 years of age
  • Have a regular income
  • Are not or have not been bankrupt (including Part IX agreements)
  • Are an Australian citizen or a permanent resident
  • Have not had defaults on any Loans, Credit cards, Interest free finance or Store cards in the last 5 years
  • Have been in your current job longer than 6 months
  • Have an acceptable Credit Risk Profile (Credit Score)

  • Your personal details, such as your current and previous address, phone number and email address
  • Details of your income, employment, any assets (e.g. home, car or savings) and debts (mortgages, loans and credit cards) you currently have.

Community First Bank is able to offer loans to self employed applicants including home loans, personal loans, credit cards and overdrafts.

The types of documentation we will request from you may vary between applicants due to differences in individual situations and the type of loan you are applying for. The following are some examples of documentation you may be asked to provide.

  • Last 2 years full Tax Returns and financials/profit & loss statements for both of your personal and/or company tax returns to support your Self Employed income, and last 2 pay slips for other applicants
  • Proof of any rental income for properties via real estate statement or copy of executed lease
  • Latest Notice Of Assessments for each applicant
  • Last 3 months most recent everyday transaction account statements where your income is credited to.
  • Last 3 months statements of any loans or credit cards you are refinancing to us
  • Copy of current rates notice if it is a mortgage application

Fees and charges

An Early Repayment Fee (ERF) applies for fixed loans. Refer to our fees and charges schedule for more information on fees that may be applicable.
