What you need to know about loans for:

Refinancing your loan

Loan choices are constantly changing

Assess your total cost to change

We do the numbers on the up-to-the-minute choices

Consider this...

  • The finance market has changed. Your loan might have been the cheapest loan when you started but it may be too expensive now.
  • The market is constantly changing. Check your loan against the market annually.
  • The cost of exiting your current loan and starting a new one should be balanced against any reduction in your rate.
  • Consolidating expensive debts like credit cards into your home loan should significantly reduce your loan repayments.
  • Changing to an interest only loan with optional principle payments should reduce your monthly repayments.
  • The amount of debts you can consolidate into your home loan varies between lenders.
  • If you have a bad credit rating including defaults, judgments or loan payment dishonours you should still be able to obtain a refinance loan.
  • Credit impaired loans are usually more expensive than a standard home loan.
