Pros and cons

Pros

  • A lower variable rate. 6.24%, below the typical 6.62%. On a $600,000 loan, every 0.10% less saves about $600 a year in interest.
  • 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.
  • No early repayment fee listed. You can pay the loan off early, or refinance, without a penalty. Check the terms to be sure.

Cons

  • Higher upfront fees. $1,150, above the typical $600, which adds to the cash you need at settlement.
  • No offset account. Your savings can't reduce the interest unless you pay them into the loan.
