Getting the best deal on your home loan all starts by comparing every possible deal you can find. There’s a lot of comparison websites out there designed for this exact purpose. These will save you hours of your time and give you a good picture of what’s available. You may also want to consult a mortgage broker to assist you in evaluating your options.
Another way to compare apples with apples is to look at Home Loan Fact Sheets. Home Loan Key Fact Sheets are a tool designed to give you the information you need when you’re shopping around for a home loan. With so many types of loans available they let you know what the interest rates and known fees are for a range of home loan products. The fact sheets will also highlight important information such as the total amount to be paid back over the life of the loan.
The real question on everyone’s lips is how much will I save. Like every aspect of the home loan experience, this answer will fluctuate between each person and situation. In most cases, the interest rate has the highest impact on your home loan repayments. Over the lifetime of a loan, this difference could equate to tens of thousands of dollars. Be sure to compare each lender's Key Facts Sheets so you are comparing 'apples with apples'.
We aim to help more people on the journey to home ownership. In line with this vision, we do not offer loans for investment properties and you're required to occupy the property as your principal place of residence.
However, we understand things change and you may find yourself in a situation where you are unable to stay in your home. If you have explored all options to either sell or refinance, you can contact us to discuss your circumstances. We look at each situation on a case by case basis.
