What is a split home loan?
A split home loan is where you can split your loan and have a part of your loan on a variable interest rate, and part of your loan on a fixed interest rate, so you can take advantage of both interest types. Key advantages of getting a split loan include getting the security of a fixed rate but also the flexibility that a variable loan features.
How does a split home loan work?
With a split home loan, you can ‘split’ your loan into multiple accounts, to reap the benefits of variable rate loans and fixed rate loans. You can choose how you split your loan, giving you flexibility to structure your loan to suit your lifestyle.
How much of a split loan can you fix?
You can choose how you'd like to split your loan. This is a flexible loan type, so you have the option to split the loan to suit you. For example, you can choose to split 60:40, with 60% of the loan has a variable repayment, while the other 40% is fixed.
What types of loans can be split?
Most loan types are able to be split, with the exception being construction loans.
