Mozo Review   NAB Base Variable Rate Home Loan Review

Last updated: 9 November 2018.

What's hot:

  • 2018 Mozo Experts Choice Award

  • No monthly fees

  • Borrow up to 95% LVR

What's not:

  • $2000 min redraw

Mozo snapshot:

If you're after a variable rate home loan from one of the Big 4 Banks, the NAB Base Variable Home Loan has low variable rates starting from 3.87% (3.91% comparison rate), no monthly fees and great flexibility to suit borrowers whether they're looking for their first home, an investment property, downsizing or upsizing their current home. In fact, it was judged as such a good option for investors that it was awarded a 2018 Mozo Experts Choice Award for best Investor Home Loan. 


Key features:

The Base Variable Home Loan is an easy to manage home loan. There are no monthly fees to worry about and you can tailor your repayments to suit your lifestyle. If you choose to make interest and principal repayments you can opt for weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayments. There is also an interest only option (for up to 5 years) for investors and owner-occupiers but you can only pay monthly (in arrears) if you choose this. 

You can make additional payments for free and if you need the cash at a later point in time you can redraw anytime for free but the minimum redraw amount is $2000. The good thing about getting ahead in your repayments is that with the Base Variable Home Loan you can take a repayment holiday if you need due to family or personal reasons for a period of time.

The 3.87% interest rate (3.91% comparison rate) is available whether you are borrowing $20,000 or $2 million as there is no maximum loan amount. With this loan you can also borrow up to 95% of the property value but lenders mortgage insurance will be required for anything over 80%. 

There is also a split option available if you want to split the loan between the Base Variable and another NAB home loan such as a fixed rate loan.

Who it's good for:

Anyone who is looking for an easy to manage home loan and likes the security of a Big 4 Bank.

Any catches?

As with all variable rate loans rates are likely to move at some point in the future so be sure to keep an eye on the interest rates and switch again if you aren't getting a good deal.

    They were very helpful on initial setup. Were accomodating and understanding when we queried the rate. They send regular updates of rate changes and how we can fix our rate if we want to. Online/mobile app is very user friendly.
