Looking to sell?
Making sense of selling
Do I keep my home and rent it, or do I sell it and cash in? Let’s guide you with handy information on selling, valuations, costs and pitfalls.
List it for sale
You’re selling and want to pay out your home loan? We can show you which forms to complete and even help with discharging the property.
Buying a new home
We can help if you’re using your current loans portability feature, a bridging loan if you’ve bought first, or if you need a new home loan.
Selling or just sold? $2K cashback could be yours*
Stick with us for your next home loan and you could be rewarded with a cashback.
Must apply for a new loan by 30 September and settle by 31 December 2022, plus sell a property with an existing Westpac home loan between 1 March and 31 December 2022. Min loan $250K. Conditions, credit criteria, fees, charges, eligibility criteria and exclusions apply.
Save when buying and selling by keeping your home loan
Just because you’re selling doesn’t necessarily mean you need to close your home loan. If you’re buying another property, you may be able to save both time and money on refinancing by using your Westpac home loan’s portability feature to substitute the property held as security.
- No break costs on a fixed rate loan if you keep your existing limit and balance
- Keep your loan details, rate, repayments, features and set-ups
- Avoid potential upfront costs involved when applying for a new loan
- Less paperwork, for faster turnaround times
