Pros and cons
Pros
- No upfront fees. Less cash needed at settlement.
- No annual fee. Nothing extra to pay each year over the life of the loan.
- Extra repayments. Paying more than the minimum pays the loan off sooner and cuts the interest you pay.
- No early repayment fee listed. You can pay the loan off early, or refinance, without a penalty. Check the terms to be sure.
- 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
- No offset account. Your savings can't reduce the interest unless you pay them into the loan.
