If you’re particularly budget conscious, the Fixed Home Loan from Suncorp Bank may be a good idea because you’ll know exactly how much you’ll be paying back each month. Eligible customers can borrow amounts from $10,000 and up to 95% of the property’s value if you’re an owner occupier or up to 90% if you’re an investor. There are an extensive range of fixed rates to choose from depending on how long you want to lock in for, including 1, 2, 3 or 5-year terms as well as the choice between interest-only (up to 5 years) or principal and interest repayments. There is a monthly fee to consider, but you may or may not find this worthwhile given that you'll be able to make additional repayments towards the loan (free up to $500 per month) in order to pay it off faster.

From the no frills, low cost Back to Basics loan to the Standard Variable Loan with all the bells and whistles, Suncorp Bank has a variable rate loan to suit the needs of all kinds of owner occupier or investor borrowers. Both variable home loans allow you to repay your loan on your own terms with an extra repayments feature and a redraw facility, plus the choice between a weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayment cycle. The Back to Basics option lets you skip any unnecessary features and a monthly service fee, but if you want access to an offset account and you're happy to pay a monthly service fee you'll want to choose the Standard Variable Loan. Both loans are available on lending of $10,000 or more and principal and interest or interest-only repayment options are available.

Borrowers looking for a package home loan deal will have two options to choose from: the Fixed Home Loan (Home Package Plus) which is available to both owner occupiers and investors or the Fixed Home Loan First Home Buyer (Home Package Plus) which is only open to owner occupiers who have never purchased a property before. Both home loans are available on amounts starting from $150,000, but while the Fixed Home Loan comes with 1, 2, 3 or 5-year fixed rate options, the First Home Buyer package comes with a single 5-year fixed rate. When you choose a home loan package from Suncorp Bank, you’ll be rewarded with a number of special offers and discounts on insurance, credit cards and personal loans. There is an annual package fee to consider though, but you can find out more about the fees and features of both loans in the linked reviews below.

Other banks seem to always have lower interest rates for the same product. It isn't until you ask that they look into it for you. This, to me, should happen automatically. If they can do a better offer, then they should offer it before you have to ask for it.

I had some financial difficulties during the Covid period. They were wonderful and I could not have asked for better assistance.
