Things you should know

Credit Criteria, fees and charges apply. Terms and conditions available on request. Based on Westpac's credit criteria, residential lending is not available for Non-Australian Resident borrowers.

^Fixed rate home loan: Interest rate(s) displayed is for Australian Residents only. Rates quoted are based on today’s rate and on your repayment type and loan purpose. Your new fixed interest rate is the rate that applies on the day you submit your request. 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. Fixed rates are also available to existing variable rate home loan customers looking to fix all or part of their loan.

*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.
