Numbers not your thing? No problem, we love them. Let’s put our heads together and work out where you stand.

Let’s figure it out together

 

  • How much home loan could I get for my current rent?
    Paying off your own home is a much more satisfying way to spend that rent money. Be my own landlord.
  • How much can I borrow?
    The question everyone wants to know: how much house can I afford? Show me the money.
  • How much are the repayments?
    Every payment will be chipping away at that loan. So how much will they be? It’s so worth it.
  • How long will it take me to repay my loan?
    You can give yourself 30 years to pay off one of our home loans. Could you do it faster? I’ll bet I could.

  • Lock in a rate for simpler budgeting.
    fixed rate loan is a set rate for a set period, to keep your repayments the same. I like a sure thing.
  • Float your rate and keep your loan flexible.
    With a simple floating rate loan, your repayments change when rates change. That floats my boat.
  • Mix and match to suit your needs.
    Split your home loan between fixed and floating rates to get the best of both. I’ll divide and conquer.
  • Use your home loan like an overdraft.
     Flexi Home Loan lets you use your home loan to fund home improvement or other spending, up to your agreed limit. I’m putting it on the house.
  • Borrow to build your perfect home.
    Our special construction loans let you draw on the funds as your build progresses. Ooh - I want to talk to somebody.
