View Full Version : Home loan interest rates
Hi, I was just wondering what interest rates people have on their home loans. Mine is through ANZ & is at 7.72% at the moment, and I was thinking about re-financing if I can find a lower interest rate without too many "other" fees involved.
Also do you have to have an account with your lender?
My previous loan I had was through Homeside Lending - but I didn't have an account with the National Bank, whereas with ANZ we have to have an account with them, so there are added charges for having that specific account.

We are through Rams and have a variable rate of 7.55% (was 7.26% until the RBA decided they wanted more of our aldready stretched money). There's an annual fee of about $300 as well.
Maybe you should have a chat with a mortgage broker - I'm sure there are a few on here somewhere :thumbsup:
I am also with ANZ and on 7.72%. If you are looking at changing, I too would chat to a mortgage broker, they can let you know what your options are and let you know what's best for your situation.

we are with maxis loans - about to go up to 7.99% but no fees and unlimited redraws.
Definitely see a mortgage broker, and check out comparison rates.
I just refinanced to Westpac and have a locked in 1 year rate of 7.16% after a year it goes to standard variable but I can pay a $500 fee to have the reduced rate again locked in. Worth it for me as it is a hefty sized mortgage.
There is a bank called The Rock that has a rate of 6.99% atm. Think it is locked in for one year as well.

That's great 7% sounds like a great rate but I'm looking for more along the lines of 5% fixed for my new home loan. I may go through gmac (http://www.gmacmortgage.com/index.html) for the loan. Any suggestions?

That is a american company that you have linked.
You will never find someone lending at 5% especially fixed lol, not in Australia this year anyway:rolleyes:
7.19% fixed for 5 years. We can redraw, we get no fees & can make extra repayments at no charge.
We are lucky we got in at the right time :yes:
