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.
- No early repayment fee listed. You can pay the loan off early, or refinance, without a penalty. Check the terms to be sure.
- Fixed rates on offer. You can fix for 1 to 5 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
Nothing stands out.
