Can I change my repayments?

Yes, it is possible to increase or reduce your repayments. However, there are a few important things to be aware of.

Voluntary additional repayments

With a Tiimley Own home loan, you can make unlimited additional repayments if you have a variable rate home loan, or up to $20,000 per year if you have a fixed rate home loan.

The additional repayments made will be available via our free redraw facility.

Making a permanent change to your repayment amount

This is also known as a loan variation and can be arranged through our in-life team, however it does incur a fee. Why? Because as responsible lenders, we'll need to assess whether a loan variation is the right thing for us to offer you.

Increasing your set home loan repayments can reduce the overall interest paid over the life of your loan and shorten your loan term.

Reducing your home loan repayments has the opposite effect - your loan repayments will be lower, but this means your loan term is lengthened and you'll end up paying more interest over the life of your loan.

Unforeseeable changes in your life might impact your ability to make your repayments. Many lenders, including Tiimely Home, offer support for people experiencing finacial hardship. Decreasing your repayments may be a suitable option, however, we recommend speaking to our in-life team about your options.
