Option to Split loan.
Westpac’s split home loan provides the best of both worlds of variable and fixed homeloans where you can:
1. Lock in some certainty: Know what your interest rate and repayments will be on your fixed loan for the full
1–5 year term.
2. Make additional repayments: Get ahead on your variable rate home loan with no cap on extra repayments
and no associated break costs.
3. Save interest with an offset: Keep funds in an offset facility to reduce the amount of interest you pay
on your variable home loan balance.
Rate Lock
Please note that the advertised fixed homeloan is guaranteed until it is settled.
Westpac offers their customers to lock in a fixed rate for 0.10% of the loan amount. For example it will cost $100 to lock
in a fixed rate loan of $100,000. This fee is usually paid at time of T&C sign-up, as fee cannot be paid from loan
proceeds. The fixed rate is locked in for a period of 90 days on all applicable single drawdown loans.
Business notes
