Hello Ozbargainers,
These are discretionary rates and you won't be able to see them on BoM/St George website. I have been able to get 5.74% as well for loans above $500K. So please enquire and I will find out the best solution for you.
Combined with broker cashback of 0.3%. The effective rate becomes 5.64% p.a. for first 2 years. and you get 2K refinance cashback as well.
Fees are $100 at the start, $395/year for the package and $350 to exit. I know they are on the higher side.
Refer to this link for 2K refinance cashback terms and conditions and this link for broker cashback terms and conditions.
How is this offer any better than tic toc home loans or unloan?
- It is cheaper when compared over 2 years period. Example. 400K loan. unloan is 5.74% and tic toc is 5.69% but this offer after broker discount is 5.64%. So savings of $400 in 2 years. Plus left over of 1K cashback(2K cashback - package fees). The savings will be even more for larger loans.
- BoM/St George has special refinance policy for mortgage prisoners paying on time and a higher rate but cannot refinance due to borrowing capacity issues.
- You get some physical presence and proper app with payid etc.
- BoM/St George has a better risk appetite as compared to smaller lenders like unloan and tic toc etc. They can handle complex lending needs. Like multiple properties and multiple loans etc.
- You will be dealing with me and quality of service will remain consistent, no matter which bank you choose.

They dropped my variable from 5.94 to 5.74 yesterday. Worth a phone call if with them, operator said I they can't offer it, I had to call and ask for a review with retention team and ask for better rate.
