If you're an owner occupier looking for a home loan with a major bank, it's hard to look past some of the features available with the Flexi First Option Home Loan from Westpac.
Westpac offers a low starting variable rate of 6.44% p.a. (6.76% p.a. comparison rate*) for the first two years which is pretty great as far home loan rates go. Just bear in mind that while you will be able to borrow up to 95% of the property value with the Westpac Flexi First Option Home Loan, borrowers with an LVR over 80% may be required to take out lenders mortgage insurance.
There are different rates depending on the LVR tier you're on. The tiers are:
As the name suggests, the Flexi First Option is also about giving borrowers a bit of extra flexibility. You'll be able to make repayments on a schedule which suits your pay cycle (with weekly, fortnightly and monthly options available), plus you can make extra repayments at any time and there's a redraw facility at hand should you need to dip into them.
And while there are no one-off fees borrowers should remember that there's an $8 loan account fee, which is charged monthly, and a $350 loan discharge fee.
The Flexi First Option Home Loan could be a good match for owner occupier borrowers who are looking for a basic home loan from a major bank which has a number of flexible features available.
There’s no offset account attached to the loan, which may be an essential feature for many borrowers.
