  • Hi Rep,
    I'm already with citi, can I get the same deal by refinancing?

    • Fixed or variable?

      • Hi, this is a variable rate. There are more competitive fixed rates available including ones which come with 100% offset and full redraw. Feel free to PM me with any questions. Michael

  • What LVR?

    • Hi, it's a max LVR of 80%. Feel free to PM me for more info. Michael.

  • +1

    These guys are doing 2.51% comp with offset and no app fees - https://www.statecustodians.com.au/low-rate-home-loan

    LVR here is 60%

    • Any catch with them?

      • A high discharge fee - generally the lenders with high discharge fees tend to be the most likely to raise existing customer rates out of cycle (given the existing customer's cost to switch is high).

  • +1

    So is cashback applicable over 400k or 300k?

    • For a moment, I thought Shopback applies to this deal…. need to stop buying stuff via ozb…

  • looks good. hope it's still around in the new FY.

  • +1

    whats the rate for IO investment loan

    • Hi There, the rate for IO is 2.93% up to 80% LVR. Feel free to PM me or email [email protected] for a chat about your investment loan options.

  • Do these apply to Construction Builds as well?

  • $1,000 cash back is balls TBH. Plenty of others offering $4k (suncorp) and $3k (ANZ) and probably no application fee too.

    • -2

      TBH all cash backs are balls, there all just marketing gimmicks to permit easier access into your wallet.

      Suncorp look like they are doing $2k or $3k (for bigger loans) and their comp rate is 3.32%, god knows what the refinance costs r like. Stick with a well featured loan with a low comp rate and life's simple and cheaper!

  • Guys, any reason why one should go for variable now when fixed rates are around 2.29%?
    Is there a reason not to lock in the interest rates?

    • Because it's easier to get switch (or threaten switching) with variable. And in the current climate the variable rate is unlikely to go up any time soon…

  • Tic Toc home loans have offset ($10/mth) and unlimited redraw. LVR up to 90% and rate is 2.39% (2.40% Comp). No fees.

    • I heard tic toc can only deal directly to customers and not via broker?
      How is your experience with tic toc so far?

      • I haven't personally used them, as I have a good deal with my current lender. A couple of friends have switched over and have said they are pretty good so far.

      • My experience with Tic Toc is "Real People, Real Videos".
        Sorry, I meant Tik Tok…

  • Beyond 400k! By god, are we living in mansions?

    • +2

      are you living in the woods?

      • Yes, that’s the only place I could afford a mansion

  • Hi OP,
    Suncorp are offering $2,000 Refinance Cash Bonus where the total refinanced amount to Suncorp Bank is between $250,000 - $749,999.99 & LVR of <= 90%.

    You are offering 1000 cashback over 400k- is that on top of the 2,000 if I went with Suncorp bank?
    Apologies if I got this wrong?

    Many thanks in advance for providing clarification.

  • My experience with Citibank has been pretty poor. Their banking applications (mobile and web) are pretty archaic and confusing to use, customer service is pretty poor - not the people but rather the process to action things e.g. getting a new cardholder, bank cheques you need to mail (as in post a letter) to the head office in Sydney. Whilst the rate is pretty good the experience can be pretty frustrating when you need it to work.

    Admittedly I refinanced by using one of the refinance deals i.e. ANZ 4k so that net/net I'm not losing money. I suggest anyone that wants to apply be prepared for the above issues though noting the above may not be make or break for everyone!

  • Hi All, new to refinance here. I've got a couple locked in rates with the current bank and 50% on variable, what bargaining power do I have to refinance on the current back or switching to a new bank, what penalty would I face?
