FAQs
With an interest-only loan, you only pay the interest on the amount you have borrowed.
These interest-only loans are for a set period (for example, five years) after which the loan changes to a principal & interest loan.
To avoid paying Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI), borrowers need a 20% deposit in most cases.
To calculate your interest, you need to convert the interest rate to a decimal by dividing the percentage by 100. Multiply your loan balance by the decimal interest value to get the annual interest charge.
You can work out the daily interest cost by dividing the annual interest cost by 365 (days in the year). Multiply the daily interest charge by the number of days in the month to get your loan’s monthly interest charge.
In addition, many home loans come with product features like offset sub-accounts that help reduce your interest paid, allowing you to pay down more of your principal and take years off your home loan.
