About HSBC home loans

HSBC offers a range of home loans in Australia, starting with the Home Value Loan (Variable) for those looking for a simple option with a compelling interest rate. There’s also the Standard Variable Rate Home Loan which adds an offset account, and the Fixed Rate Home Loan if you want to limit your vulnerability to potential rate rises.

Our verdict

HSBC’s Home Value Loan walked away with a Mozo Experts Choice Award for Low Cost Home Loan in 2024, and that’s all thanks to its highly competitive interest rates across the board.

Those with a deposit of at least 20% – which gives you a loan-to-value ratio (LVR) of 80% – can access a variable rate of 6.09% p.a. That’s substantially lower than the current average variable rate of 6.75% p.a. (as at 15 October, 2024).

HSBC is even more compelling for those with a deposit of 40% or more, as an LVR of 60% or less will get you down to a variable rate of 5.99% p.a. – that could make it a good option for those looking to refinance.

The drawbacks are that there’s no offset account attached to this loan, and there are fees you should be aware of before applying. For instance, you’ll need to pay a $300 variation fee anytime you make changes to your loan, and HSBC will pass on the cost of your property valuation to you.

While it doesn’t come with an offset account, borrowers can benefit by making extra repayments at no cost, with the ability to redraw those additional payments anytime without penalty.
