Variable Rate Home Loans

When you choose one of the variable rate home loan offers from Great Southern Bank, you’ll pay both a settlement and application fee, but in return, you’ll get a host of flexible features to help you save on your home loan, like unlimited free extra repayments, the ability to redraw funds and the use of an offset account (100% offset with the Accelerate Variable, partial offset with the Achieve Variable). You’ll also get the flexibility to choose between a principal and interest or an interest only loan, as well as pick between a weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayment schedule to suit your budget.

Greater Southern Bank - great Service

I have been with greater Southern Bank formally known as CUA, I find that they are always helpful, can assist with any enquirers and at times go above and beyond. I dislike the closure of physical branches as my closest is over an hour away.

Great Bank, super friendly and a great help

I switch my bank to GSB about a year and half ago after being with Commbank for like 12 years. I didn't receive any benefits from my partnership with commbank and i am in way better position now that i have switch. the few times i have contact GSB, they have been really helpful and super quick. I am even thinking about saying with them when my home loan becomes unlocked and moving all my banking across to them.
