With interest rates starting from 5.89% p.a. (6.42% p.a. comparison rate*), this green home loan could provide a great incentive for anyone looking to buy or build a more eco-friendly home, specifically one with a high energy efficiency rating.
The Clean Energy Home Loan Eco / Eco Upgrade comes with a 3-year fixed rate of 5.89% p.a. (6.42% p.a. comparison rate*).
You'll also be able to take advantage of a 10% discount on general insurance products including building, contents and comprehensive motor insurance. You’ll also have the fee waived on your Everyday Access account or Mortgage Offset accounts. And if you’re looking to apply for the Platinum Rewards Visa Credit Card, you’ll not only have the fee waived, but you’ll also enjoy 0% interest on balance transfers for the first 12 months.
Plus if you want to reduce the amount of interest you pay, you also have the option to open a Mortgage Offset account with unlimited transactions. 100% of the balance in your Mortgage Offset account will be used to offset your home loan and reduce the amount of interest you owe each month. On top of that, you could also play it safe with a fixed rate and benefit from a lower variable rate at the same time, if you choose to split your loan repayments into two different accounts.
Another handy feature of this home loan is the ability to either apply an eco pause or a parental pause for three or six months. If you’re planning eco-upgrades to your abode or you’re about to welcome a little bub into the world, then you can apply for a pause on your loan repayments for a maximum of six months. Although you will still have to pay the relevant interest owed during the pause period.
This loan is great for any eco-warriors out there who have a deposit saved up and plan to build or buy a more eco-friendly home. So if the home you’re planning to build meets any of the following criteria then you could be rewarded with a pretty substantial discount:
7 plus star NatHERS rating
7 plus star Residential Efficiency Scorecard (excludes the impact of installed/installing rooftop solar)
Passive House Certification
Green Star - Design & As Built v1.2 score 8 points or more on the credit ‘15 Greenhouse Gas Emissions’
This home loan comes with a $350 yearly fee, so before you sign up it might be worth figuring out if all the perks are worth it for the annual price.
