This calculation isn’t an offer of credit but only an estimate of split loan repayments based on the info provided, and doesn’t include all applicable fees (except for monthly fees). Your repayments may be different when you complete a full application, and we capture all details relevant to our lending criteria. Our lending criteria and basis upon which we assess what you can afford may change at any time without notice. Before acting on this calculation you should seek professional advice.

All interest rates referred to in the calculators are current, as indicated on westpac.com.au. The interest rates represented on this page may include promotional discounts and are subject to change. When assessing ability to service a loan, Westpac may use an interest rate that’s higher than the current interest rate for the loan requested.

The output of each calculator is subject to the assumptions provided under each calculator and are subject to change. The calculator does not take into account any future refinancing options which may be available, or any product features, grants or applicable bank fees.

Comparison rate: The comparison rate is based on a loan of $150,000 over the term of 25 years. WARNING: This comparison rate is true only for the examples given and may not include all fees and charges. Different terms, fees or other loan amounts might result in a different comparison rate.

 

LVR stands for the loan-to-value ratio. LVR is the amount of your loan compared to the Bank's valuation of your property offered to secure your loan expressed as a percentage. Home loan rates for new loans are set based on the initial LVR and won't change during the life of the loan as the LVR changes.

Fixed rate home loan: The Bank will apply the fixed rate that is available at the loan settlement date, unless the customer locks a fixed rate in on the loan using our Rate Lock feature. The Fixed Rate - Lock-In fee is 0.10% of the loan amount. At the end of the fixed rate period the interest rate will convert to the applicable variable home loan interest rate unless a new fixed rate term is selected and then the fixed rate is determined two business days prior to the refix. Interest rate(s) displayed is for Australian Residents only. Rate lock is not available for progress draw loans under the construction option. 

If at any time before the end of a fixed rate period you switch to another product, interest rate (fixed or variable) or repayment type, then a break cost may apply.

 

Break costs on fixed loan prepayments and switching: customers can make total prepayments of up to $30,000 (cumulative) for fixed loans, without costs or fees applying. You may incur a break cost and administration fee if your prepayments exceed this threshold, or if at any time before the end of a fixed rate period you switch to another product, interest rate (fixed or variable) or repayment type.

What are the benefits of a variable rate?
 

The interest rate on a variable rate home loans can fluctuate: it could go either up or down, which would affect your repayments.

Variable rate home loans tend to offer more flexibility. They allow you to make unlimited additional repayments if you find yourself with spare cash, so you’ll be able to pay off your loan early. You can also redraw these extra funds if you need them for things like renovating.

Our Rocket loans have features like offset – a transaction account linked to your loan that counts against your mortgage balance, to help reduce your interest. Calculate how much you could save with offset.

What are the benefits of a fixed rate?

 

Fixed rate home loans have an interest rate that doesn't change for a set period of time, giving you the certainty of knowing what your repayments will be. With our fixed rate home loans, you can choose from our fixed rates between 1 to 5 years.

Fixing your interest rate means if interest rates rise or fall, your monthly repayments and interest charges will still stay the same for the duration of the fixed rate term.

Fixed rate loans offer repayment certainty but tend to be more restrictive. There are limits on the amount of extra repayments you can make. There could also be break costs for paying off your fixed rate home loan during fixed period. Or switching to another fixed rate or variable rate home loan, before your fixed home loan term ends.
