This 2021 Mozo Experts Choice Award-winning green home loan from Bank Australia could act as a great accompaniment for anyone looking to buy or build a more environmentally friendly home. If eligible for this home loan, you’ll receive a pretty substantial 0.20% discount on your variable interest rate for the first five years of the loan.
Variable interest rates for Bank Australia’s Clean Energy Eco Home Loan start from as low as 3.25% p.a. (3.70% p.a. comparison rate*). You can grab this introductory rate for the first 60 months (five years) of your loan if you’re looking to borrow $500,000 or more. The offer comes with a loan to value ratio of <90%, so you will need a deposit of at least 10% saved up, which could make it accessible for first time buyers.
Now of course, to get any of these discounted rates in the first place you will have to meet the criteria of the Clean Energy Eco Home Loan. This particular home loan is designed to encourage Aussies to invest in homes that are kinder to the planet. So to be eligible for the loan, the home you are buying or building will either need to have both a NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme) rating of 7 stars or higher and solar panels (minimum 3kw) - or you'll need to have a Green star homes certification (be sure to check the full T&C's)
Other perks include the ability to make free extra repayments, meaning you could have your loan paid off sooner than you think; a free redraw facility, in case you find yourself short on funds; a Mortgage Offset account; and the ability to split your loan into two different accounts. This last feature will allow you to pay one portion of your loan with a guaranteed fixed interest rate and the other with a possibly lower variable rate, meaning you really can have the best of both interest rate worlds.
On top of all that you’ll not only have the regular fee on your Everyday Access account or Mortgage Offset account waived, but you could also have the establishment fee on a personal loan waived. And if you’re looking to get a Platinum Rewards Visa Credit Card, you’ll be happy to hear that not only will you have the fee waived, but you’ll also benefit from 0% interest on balance transfers for the first 12 months.
This home loan is good for anyone who wants to make their eco-dreams a reality with a discounted home loan rate. If you’re looking to build or buy a home with any of the following certifications, then this loan might just be the right one for you:
7 plus star rating under the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) and solar panels (minimum 3kw)
7 stars or more rating with the Residential Efficiency Scorecard (this 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.’
You will have to pay a $350 yearly fee to access all the perks that come with this green home loan. It should also be noted that the discounted interest rate only applies for the first five years of the loan, after which it will revert back to the standard variable rate (which will be dependent on your particular loan amount and LVR).
