  • Ask your bank for a better rate every year, or compare and refinance.

Questions people ask

How are mortgage repayments worked out?+

Repayments are set so the loan and all its interest are paid off by the end of the term. Interest is charged on the balance each month, so early repayments are mostly interest and later ones mostly principal.

Is fortnightly better than monthly?+

Paying exactly the fortnightly equivalent makes little difference. Paying half your monthly repayment every fortnight does: there are 26 fortnights a year, so you pay one extra month a year and finish the loan years earlier.

What is LMI?+

Lenders Mortgage Insurance protects the bank, not you. It's usually charged when you borrow more than 80% of the property's value. Government schemes such as the Home Guarantee Scheme can let eligible buyers avoid it.

How much do extra repayments save?+

Enter an amount in 'Extra repayment' to see it. On a $600,000 loan at 6% over 30 years, an extra $500 a month saves well over $200,000 in interest.
