NAB hikes longer-term fixed home loan rates
National Australia Bank (NAB) has increased a number of its fixed home loan rates by between 10 and 30 basis points.
Implemented yesterday, the latest rate hikes from the major bank apply to 3, 4 and 5-year terms for owner occupiers on its fixed Tailored Home Loan products, while 1 and 2-year rates remain unchanged.
Following the changes, here are the latest rates available with NAB’s Tailored Home Loan (Fixed, Package) which are the lowest available from the bank:
Tailored Home Loan (Fixed, Package) - Owner occupiers, P&I repayments
Fixed rate | Rate change | |
1-year | 2.09% p.a. (4.16% p.a. comparison rate*) | N/A |
2-year | 1.99% p.a. (3.98% p.a. comparison rate*) | N/A |
3-year | 2.18% p.a. (3.70% p.a. comparison rate*) | +10bp |
4-year | 2.49% p.a. (3.69% p.a. comparison rate*) | +25bp |
5-year | 2.79% p.a. (3.73% p.a. comparison rate*) | +30bp |
NAB is not alone in lifting fixed home loan rates though. Fellow major bank Westpac did the same last month (on 4 and 5-year terms) as did the Commonwealth Bank (on 4-year terms).
In fact, the tide has well and truly turned in recent months with a large number of lenders having hiked their longer-term fixed rates.
As a result, the 4 and 5-year fixed rate averages in the Mozo database have lifted by 22 and 19 basis points respectively since reaching low points in March.
Despite the latest hikes, NAB’s fixed rates remain relatively competitive among their big four counterparts, though as the table below shows, borrowers looking to lock in a rate will currently find sharper offers among other banks and lenders.

* WARNING: This comparison rate applies only to the example or examples given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan. The comparison rate displayed is for a secured loan with monthly principal and interest repayments for $150,000 over 25 years.
** Initial monthly repayment figures are estimates only, based on the advertised rate. You can change the loan amount and term in the input boxes at the top of this table. Rates, fees and charges and therefore the total cost of the loan may vary depending on your loan amount, loan term, and credit history. Actual repayments will depend on your individual circumstances and interest rate changes.
