Understanding home loan mortgage types
Low rates aren’t everything when it comes to mortgages. The best mortgage for you will depend on your personal circumstances and what you would like to achieve from your investment. Your dedicated Loan Gallery Finance broker in Melbourne will work with you to determine your financial goals and circumstances and match you with a loan that suits your needs.
Variable Rate
A variable rate means that the interest rate on your loan will go up and down as financial conditions change. This may be from the official cash rate, market conditions and the lender’s decision-making. Your repayments will adjust up and down accordingly.
Fixed rate
Fixed interest rates means your rates are locked in place for between one to five years so even when rates change, your repayments stay the same. Of course, that also means if interest rates drop, you don’t reap the rewards.
Split rate
A split rate means you can allocate part of your loan to a fixed rate and part of your loan to a variable rate.
eg. 80:20 – 80% of the total loan value is charged on the fixed rate for a set period of time and 20% of the loan value is charged with the variable rate.
Interest only
This loan type gives you a bit of breathing space as it allows you to temporarily pay the interest cost only. In other words, your repayments will only cover the interest on the total amount borrowed. So the amount borrowed won’t reduce during this set period of time. Your Loan Finance Gallery broker will be able to explain all of the pros and cons of an interest only loan.
Line of credit
You can pay into and withdraw from this account providing you keep up with the required repayments. You can even have your income paid into this account to help with paying the mortgage sooner but keep in mind that the interest rates are usually a little higher.
