  • So what is the interest rate then? You call out the $1,250 rebate then tell us that it is not available with the Flexi First Option at 3.75%. What are the ,T's & C's & other fee's etc etc

    Smells a bit like spam to me

    • Hi MaMan, the rate depends which product you choose and what your scenario is. Feel free to jump on the Westpac site and have a look at their rates on offer or send me a PM and I can request pricing for you.
      I only mentioned the Flexi First option as well because it is a great interest rate offer from a major bank that some people may also be interested in.

    • Indeed the comparison rate is 4.16%
      http://info.westpac.com.au/homeloans/

      NAB have $1500 cashback(or 250K velocity points), and a flat no further fee rate of 4.15% (It's variable though so roll the dice)

      IMO rates are only going down in the next two years.

      Look at all that fine print at the end of the offer…. Lawyer up lol

      • Hi Greydaniel, that NAB offer is a great one (as mentioned here https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/241517), the points can be valuable depending on the award flight you are booking on.
        That comparison rate for the Flexi First Option factors in the rate increasing from a 1.03% discount to a 0.54% discount after two years, at which point we definitely recommend our clients review options, whether it be asking what Westpac are willing to offer to retain your business or shopping around other lenders at the time.

    I have heard of this offer.. It's looks good. I was told by another broker that there are also no ongoing account fees or package fees.

    Is this true, OP?

    • Do you mean the Flexi First option? If so you are correct. As for the refinance cashback , it will depend which Westpac product is chosen.

    This is marketing/spam? Where's the deal?

    The "rebate" has been going around since a few years ago. Different campaigns, that's all.

    • From my understanding the rebate is the deal, also the Flexi First rate home loan interest that Westpac currently has on offer. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and this offering may not suit you.

      Pretty standard from many banks over time. Shop around as well, BOM for example give $1500 and one of their packages might suit just as well.

      • That's cos BOM is under Westpac

        • I am aware of that… my point was if you're looking at $1250 from Westpac, it's $1500 from BOM.

      • It all comes down to the product and interest rate that best suits your strategy. We look at over 40 lenders for our clients, incentives such as a cashback can make a big difference to some people, especially if that lender was already being considered.

    If ever i refinance with you guys, do i need to have paid off atleast 20% of my home loan?? Or do i need to pay another LMI??

    • Hi Fritzsticker LMI would not be transferable, so unless your property has risen in value enough or you have paid the debt down below 80% you would need to pay again (very frustrating that you cannot just move the existing insurance to a new lender). Would you like me to order you a free electronic valuation to get an idea what your property is worth?

      • Thanks capedin.. I live in perth and i dont think i have gained any equity at the moment as bought the house during the peak of the boom..

      • Hey CapeFin, is there a way to know for sure that my mortgage is below 80%? I suppose the free electronic valuation is not from Westpac so even if it turns out below 80% it might not be the case when Westpac actually values the property? Thanks.

        • You are spot on, I have sent you a PM to discuss further.

    • +1

      Yes, unless the value of the property has risen enough that the amount borrowed this time is under the 80%. For example, I had a 90% loan initially which I refinanced last year. A valuation put the property at around $50k more than I paid and, with what had been paid off already, the refinance was 78%.

      • Thanks phluffed.. I understand more now..
