  • Only available for refinancing, unless you have a 40% deposit (60% LVR)

  • Each month there’s a $10 fee, which eligible borrowers can recoup with CommBank Yello cashback

  • $500 in upfront fees.

Our verdict

If you’re a refinancer looking for a competitive rate, then CommBank’s Digi Home Loan could be one to watch. 

Interest rates for owner-occupiers with a 70-80% loan-to-value ratio (LVR) start at 6.19% p.a. (6.32% p.a. comparison rate*). However, borrowers refinancing to the Digi Home Loan who have 60% LVR may be eligible for an interest rate of 6.15% p.a. (6.28% p.a. comparison rate*). 

This is a digital home loan, meaning you’ll do the bulk of your loan application and management through the CommBank app or NetBank. Those services are also where you can take advantage of this product’s unlimited extra repayments and free redraw facility. 

When it comes to fees, the Digi Home Loan sits somewhere around the middle, in terms of pricing. Upfront fees will cost you about $500 ($300 application fee and $200 settlement fee) and there’s a monthly $10 loan service fee to take care of. 

Eligible CommBank Yello customers could make that monthly fee back, and then some, with the Yello cashback offer (T&Cs apply).

FAQs about CommBank home loans

Is the Commonwealth Bank good for home loans?

CommBank has a long history of helping people buy a home and they’re one of the largest lenders in Australia. That being said, Big Four home loans rarely offer the lowest rates in the market. But, if you’re comparing Big Four rates, CommBank are often rate leaders compared to Westpac, NAB, and ANZ interest rates.

How to redraw on a CommBank home loan

To make use of redraws on your CommBank home loan, you can use the CommBank app, the NetBank website, talk to a representative over the phone, or visit a CBA bank branch. 

On some CommBank home loans (e.g. the Digi Home Loan), redraws are free if you use their mobile application or NetBank. However, calling the bank or visiting them in-person could cost you a small fee to redraw your extra repayments.  

Will the Commonwealth Bank match interest rates?

If you apply for CommBank’s Standard Variable Rate Wealth Package, you may be able to negotiate your interest rate with one of their lending specialists. 

Does CommBank have an offset account?

The Commonwealth Bank only offers offset accounts on the following home loans:

  • CommBank Standard Variable Rate
  • CommBank Standard Variable Rate Wealth Package.
