Macquarie Bank Fixed 2 Year Home Loan from 5.39% P.a. (CPR 6.02% P.a.), Plus up to $4000 Broker Rebate

50
Owner occupied P&I <70lvr (+0.1% for <80lvr)

Fixed 2 years from 5.39% (CPR 6.02%)
Variable from 6.14% (CPR 6.16%)

Investor P&I <70lvr (+0.1% for <80lvr)

Fixed 2 years 5.55% (CPR 6.21%)
Variable from 6.34% (CPR 6.36%)

No annual fee for life of loan.
Offset available on variable portion/split with package fee.

PLUS Broker rebate (NOT affiliated with Macquarie Bank) up to 0.3 - 0.4% eg $4,000 for a $1m loan size broker rebate per net loan for any lender (available via broker only, not via the bank. T&Cs apply). e.g:

$400k x 0.3% = $1200
$700k x 0.3% = $2100
$1m x 0.4% = $4000

Why should I fix?

A low fixed rate can still save you more money as you can get an immediate benefit from today as opposed to waiting for a drop.

Always worth doing a calculation for your situation, eg:

If you have an existing loan and your rate is 6.39%, fixing at 5.39% will save you 1% each year.
On a $500k loan, that is a saving of $5,000 every year.
If you're saving $5,000, plus our Broker Rebate of $1,500, you are getting a saving of $6,500 in just the first year.

    Regarding Comparison Rates (CPR):
    There is a common misconception that lower comparison rates CPR will save you more money and better than a higher CPR - not necessarily and can actually be the opposite, here's why:
    - "Comparison rates" were invented by the government to reflect lender fees over the life of the loan.
    - It is based on a loan size of $150k over 25 years which is irrelevant for most customers. The CPR is actually misleading and can cost you more money.
    - If your loan is larger than $150k, then it is better to pick a lender with a lower ACTUAL rate (even if the CPR is higher) as it will save you more interest each year. Of course take into account all the fees eg $395 annual fees, which may be less significant for a larger loan size.
    For larger loans, a lower ACTUAL rate (with a higher CPR) is often better than a higher actual rate (with a lower CPR).
    - Hence CPR can be misleading and a lower CPR can be more expensive than one with a higher CPR but has a lower ACTUAL rate. The correct approach is to look at the ACTUAL rate plus all fees involved, rather than the CPR.

    The CPR may be high for a few reasons:
    1. It may incl the $395 annual fee x 25 years = $9,875. This extremely high amount is included in the calc of the CPR for a relatively low $150k loan hence greatly inflates the CPR of such a small loan to make the rate appear much higher than it actually is. It is actually not a huge amount over 25 years relatively speaking (equiv to 0.1% rate difference on a $395k loan size)
    2. The fixed CPR is even higher due to after fixed period, it defaults to a higher rate with no discount. In reality, we can always negotiate a competitive discount on variable after expiry of fixed. Also customers refinance after 2-3 years and never stay for 30 years at the same bank.
    3. Smaller online lenders have low CPR but often has up $2,000 in application, valuation, legal, discharge fees (which is negligible over 25 years hence the low CPR, but you get hit at every transaction/refinance. The smaller lenders have a lower CPR as they have no annual fee, but often a large upfront/discharge fee. The CPR is a very misleading number and small lenders using a low CPR look better than larger banks even though it may be the opposite.

      1. The fixed CPR is even higher due to after fixed period, it defaults to a higher rate with no discount. In reality, we can always negotiate a competitive discount on variable after expiry of fixed. Also customers refinance after 2-3 years and never stay for 30 years at the same bank.

      That's a fair point, assuming a home owner does shop around after the fixed rate ends and are still assessed as being able to service the same loan amount. Which may not be the case if personal circumstances change or rates increase. Which definitely happened previously when rates jumped up, hopefully less likely now.

      1. Smaller online lenders have low CPR but often has up $2,000 in application, valuation, legal, discharge fees (which is negligible over 25 years hence the low CPR, but you get hit at every transaction/refinance. The smaller lenders have a lower CPR as they have no annual fee, but often a large upfront/discharge fee.

      I've had a few loans with smaller lenders, and while they did have some fees they were nowhere near $2000. And they are a one-off fee; you can't argue that an annual fee is a rounding error but ignore this for one-off fees for a smaller lender. And isn't this all covered in the comparison rate anyway? It should cover all fees associated with a loan.

      Notwitstanding the earlier point about fixed loans, generally speaking the difference between a comparison rate and actual rate is a useful indicator of additional fees that may or may not be well advertised.

    "Note: Offset benefits are not available while the linked Loan Account is on a fixed rate of interest."

    PLUS up to 0.3-0.4% eg $4,000 for a $1m loan size broker rebate per net loan (on top of bank cashback, available via broker only, not via the bank. T&Cs apply).

    What is the bank cashback, I can't see any? Also what are the T&C for the broker cashback, can't see them either

    Why should I fix?
    RBA statement said they do not expect a rate cut in the 'near' future

    RBA - Statement of Monetary Policy

    The cash rate is assumed to move broadly in line with expectations derived from surveys of professional economists and financial market pricing. Using this methodology, the cash rate remains around its current level of 4.35 per cent until mid-2024 before declining to around 3¼ per cent by the middle of 2026. This cash rate path is a little lower than at the November Statement.

    It is absolutely expected to move downwards within 2-5 years. This just makes you look incredibly untrustworthy by providing misleading information.

        Please tell me where Macquarie Bank has stated on their page "Why should I fix? RBA statement said they do not expect a rate cut in the 'near' future"

        This is what the broker has added?

    • RBA Governor literally said that in a press conference in July or August this year.

      When asked specifically what she meant by “near future”, the governor responded “next 6 months”.

      However, it only justifies to fix for 1 yr at most.

  • Macquarie no longer offer this. The rate went up to 5.69%

  • Is this rate still available?

    • +1

      No. They only offered it for ~2 weeks
