Types of Home Loans and Features
There are hundreds of different home loans available on the market, so many it can be confusing to find the right one. Southstead Finance make it easy and will help you to find a home loan that suits your financial and personal situation.
Fixed Rate Home Loans
A fixed rate home loan allows you to set your interest rate for a period of time. This is usually in the range of one to five years. You know exactly how much your repayments will be during your fixed rate term, which can make budgeting easier. Things to consider less flexibility, limited extra repayments, usually no offset or redraw facility. Potential early repayment/break costs and the rate is usually not set until the day of settlement unless a lock rate fee is paid.
Variable Rate Home Loans
Variable rate home loans are popular and offered by most lenders. With a variable rate loan, the interest rate you are charged can fluctuate in line with market interest rate changes. Because of this, your home loan repayments may also vary.
You can make extra repayments to pay off your home loan sooner. Making additional repayments above your minimum repayment amount can reduce the term of your loan and potentially reducing the amount of interest payable.
Interest Only Home Loans
With an interest only home loan, your repayments only pay the interest that is due and does not reduce the balance (or the amount you borrowed). As a result, an interest only loan can only be obtained for a limited period (usually up to five years).
At the end of the interest only period, the loan will automatically convert to a principal and interest loan unless you make an application to extend the interest only period.
First Home Buyers
Family Pledge Guarantee
Saving the deposit for your first home can be difficult and take a number of years. One way to potentially get into your own home sooner is by having a family member act as a guarantor.
Many lenders allow parents or someone who is close to you, to use the equity in their property as security for your home in lieu of you saving the full deposit required. This person is known as a guarantor.
Split
Home Loans
This type of home loan allows you to split your home loan into multiple loan accounts that attract different interest rates.
A common example is to split your home loan to obtain a variable interest rate on one portion of the loan and a fixed rate on the other.
Offset and Redraw
Home Loans
A mortgage offset account is a savings or transaction account that can be linked to your home loan. The balance in this account ‘offsets’ daily against the balance of your home loan before interest is calculated.
An offset account can help you cut years off your home loan term and could lower the interest payments.
A redraw facility lets you access any extra repayments you’ve made on your home loan, helping manage your cashflow.
Line of Credit
This can help you turn the equity in your home into money you can actually use.
You’ll be able to access it any time, just like an everyday banking account.
It has no set term or repayment, interest Is variable and tends to be higher than a normal variable or fixed rate term loan. There is typically monthly or annual fees and it is important to consider your spending habits with this type of facility.
