BOQ’s fixed rate home loan allows you to choose from a range of fixed terms starting from 2 years up to a 5 year fixed period. You’ll be able to borrow up to 95% LVR with the principal and interest repayments. With BOQ’s fixed rate home loan, you’ll be able to make up to $5,000 p.a. in additional repayments, but you won’t have the luxury of a redraw facility. There is also a monthly account maintenance fee to consider.

Bank of Queensland offers three variable rate home loans ranging from a no frills, basic home loan to a full featured home loan called Clear Path. Depending on which BOQ variable rate loan you pick, you could borrow up to 80%, 90% or 95% of your property's value. Because they all have a monthly account maintenance fee, it’s a good idea to take advantage of all the loan’s features such a split loan account, the ability to make unlimited additional repayments, and a redraw facility ($100 minimum). With the standard variable 2 year intro rate and Clear Path home loan options, you’ll get the extra benefit of a 100% mortgage offset facility which can help you to save on interest over the life of your loan.

If you’re looking to pay off your home loan sooner, BOQ’s home loans gives you the flexibility to make extra repayments whenever you like and without penalty with the exception of the fixed loan which caps additional repayments at $5,000 p.a.
With a number of BOQ's home loans, you will not have to pay any loan application fees, although generally there will be an ongoing service fee to factor in.
For owner-occupiers, many of BOQ’s variable and fixed rate loans allow you to borrow up to 90% or 95% of the property’s value which means you’ll only need to save a small deposit of 10% or 5%. Keep in mind though, all loans over an 80% LVR will require lenders mortgage insurance.
if you're opt for any BOQ variable home loan (excluding the Economy option), you'll have access to a 100% offset account which gives you the ability to reduce how much principal you're paying interest on, helping you save big on interest costs in the long run.

BOQ Moreyfield Qld was excellent in what they could offer in mortgage rates. They went out of their way to be of assistance. Nothing was too much of a problem and I couldn’t recommend them enough.

Have asked a number of times for my loan to be reviewed and never had any further contact from the bank. Yes they helped me with my initial loan but have been no help since.
