The Accelerate Variable Home Loan from CUA is a feature-rich option suitable for all types of borrowers - from first time buyers with lower deposits to refinancers and investors.
The highlight of the Accelerate Variable Home Loan is its wide range of features. Want to make extra repayments to pay off your loan faster? What about dipping into those additional repayments via a redraw facility? Or splitting your loan into variable and fixed segments with one a CUA fixed rate loan? These are all possible.
The Accelerate Variable Home Loan even allows borrowers to open multiple offset accounts so they can save on interest over time.
What about the rates though? While they’re not quite up there with the sharpest on the market, the Accelerate Variable rates are fairly solid - especially for borrowers with lower deposits (who are often charged a rate premium):
3.14% (3.19% comparison rate*) - For owner occupiers making principal and interest repayments with an LVR below 95% on loans between $100,000 and $5,000,000.
3.57% (3.64% comparison rate*) - For investors making principal and interest repayments with an LVR below 95% on loans between $100,000 and $5,000,000.
There are also options available for borrowers wanting to make interest-only repayments, but these come with higher rates.
While the Accelerate Variable Home Loan doesn’t come with any monthly or annual service fee, there are a number of hefty one-off fees to be aware of: the $600 application fee, $235 settlement fee and $500 discharge fee. Any legal fees will also be charged at cost.
For a limited time, CUA are also giving $2,000 cashback (in the form of a Digital Prepaid Mastercard) to eligible refinancers. The deal is available to new customers who refinance at least $250,000 by January 4, 2021 and settle the loan by March 31, 2021.
CUA’s Accelerate Variable Home Loan could be a great pick for owner occupiers or investors looking for a full feature home loan, especially those who are wanting to borrow with a lower deposit.
The Accelerate Variable Home Loan is only available to new CUA customers, so existing CUA mortgage holders won’t be able to make the switch to this loan.

I like CUA as they have great customer service, however I have to travel to the city for our nearest branch (45 min). Consequently, we're looking to change.
