- Interest rates are current as at
Date Display Widget (C#)
18-Apr-2024 and are subject to change. The variable interest rate may include a discount or margin that is applied to the product’s variable reference rate. Discounts are offered to new home loan applications only. The discount cannot be used with any other rate promotion. Existing applications, internal refinances, top ups, additional advances or variations of existing home loans are not eligible. We may change or withdraw any discount or margin at any time.
- Home loan comparison rates are based on a loan of $150,000 for a term of 25 years, repaid monthly. For variable loans with interest only repayments, the comparison rates are based on an initial 5 year interest only period. WARNING: These 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 different comparison rates.
- Solicitor, valuation and agent fees may apply.
- Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) compares the amount you have owing on your loan against the actual value of your property. For example, if your property was valued at $400,000 and your loan amount was 340,000, your LVR would be 85%.
- ME Bank have won Best Value Basic Home Loan - Bank Category for our Basic Home Loan product. The methodology behind each award is Ranked by the Comparison Rate for variable loans for a $400,000 owner-occupied, principal + interest mortgage over 25 years with an LVR of at least 80%. Must offer redraw.
Terms, conditions, fees and charges apply. Applications are subject to credit approval.
