How much difference does 0.5% make on a home loan?

It makes a big difference to your interest payments. Say you had a $600,000 home loan with a loan term of 30 years. The difference of having an interest rate of 6% instead of 6.5% is: $195 in monthly repayments savings and $70,238 in interest savings over the life of your loan, assuming all fees and other charges are equal (these figures are estimates only). You can estimate your monthly repayments on a Tiimely Home loan, and total interest charged with our repayments calculator.

Legal things about our rates
Our home loans are subject to credit criteria and eligibility requirements. Home loan interest rates are for new customers only and can change. Our comparison rates are based on a $150,000 loan amount over a 25 year term. They factor in fees associated with applying for the loan; ongoing fees and fees associated with leaving the loan. Our fixed loans roll to a variable principal and interest rate at the end of the fixed term. If the interest only period is not specified, the comparison rate is calculated on a one year period.

WARNING: The comparison rates are 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.
