Pros and cons

Pros

  • An offset account. Money in it is taken off your balance when interest is worked out, so your savings and pay cut the interest while staying easy to reach.
  • Extra repayments. Paying more than the minimum pays the loan off sooner and cuts the interest you pay.
  • Redraw. You can take back extra repayments later if you need the money.
  • Interest only available. Some investors use it to keep repayments down for a few years, though the balance doesn't fall in that time.

Cons

  • A higher variable rate. 8.94%, above the typical 6.62%. On a $600,000 loan, every 0.10% more costs about $600 a year.
  • An early repayment fee. Paying the loan off early or refinancing can cost a fee, which cuts into what you save by repaying sooner.
