Pros and cons

Pros

  • 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.
  • Fixed rates on offer. You can fix for 2 years if you'd like repayments that don't change for a while.
  • 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

  • Higher upfront fees. $1,500, above the typical $600, which adds to the cash you need at settlement.
  • An annual fee. $445 a year, above the typical $350. Over a 30 year loan that's $13,350, though package fees often bring rate discounts.
  • No offset account. Your savings can't reduce the interest unless you pay them into the loan.
  • An early repayment fee. Paying the loan off early or refinancing can cost a fee, which cuts into what you save by repaying sooner.
  • A $25 late payment fee. Setting up automatic repayments avoids it.
