ME home loans

ME - formerly Member’s Equity Bank - is a national bank which was founded in 1994. It is now owned by Bank of Queensland.

ME prides itself on keeping things simple especially when it comes to home loans. You can be assured you won’t find any unnecessary bells and whistles or hidden fees with an ME home loan. There are no ME branches which means you’ll have to apply and manage your home loan wholly online, via the telephone or with the help of a bank manager whom you can organise to meet at a time and place of your convenience.

If you’re comfortable with managing your home loan in this way, an ME home loan could be right for you. This page will give you a run-down on all the stuff you need to know about an ME home loan including any special features to consider, how ME customers rated their homes loans and even what documents you’ll need for the application process.

Or if you’d prefer a mortgage provider with in branch service, head on over to Mozo’s comparison engine and search all home loans here.

Don't forget, ME took home an award in the 2023 Mozo Experts Choice Awards, winning in the Packaged Home Loan category.

Fixed Rate Home Loans

With ME’s Flexible Home Loan (Fixed) you can opt for a fixed term from 1 year up to a period 7 years and there is a 1 year interest in advance option for investment loans. The fixed rate is available on loans starting from $40,000. The flexibility in ME’s fixed rate home loan is in its wide selection of features that help you pay your loan off faster and save on interest over the long term. The ME Flexible Home Loan allows you to make up to $30,000 in extra repayments each year without penalty which is a generous limit compared to other mortgage providers but you won’t have the luxury of a redraw facility. If you need to free up funds at a later date, there is the option of a repayment holiday but you’ll need to apply. And you will not be charged any application or ongoing monthly service fees with ME’s fixed rate loan.
