Depending on the loan the deposit could range from 5% to 20% of the value of the property. Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) may be required to be taken out where you have a lower deposit.

Lenders mortgage insurance covers MOVE Bank against a loss in the unlikely event that we have to exercise our right to sell the property due to ongoing default on loan repayments. You will need to have Lenders Mortgage Insurance if your loan amount is more than 80% of the value of the property being used as security for the loan. Subject to a satisfactory evaluation of the property.

Variable rates can change anytime and will affect your regular repayments.

A fixed rate has been fixed at a certain rate, so it stays the same for the entire fixed rate period. This means that your repayments also stay the same for the same 'fixed' period.

A comparison rate is designed to help you identify the true cost of a loan, by taking into consideration certain fees and charges as well as the interest rate. By considering all these factors you can better understand the overall cost, which is helpful when comparing loans offered by different financial institutions.

Generally, the interest cost of your home loan is calculated daily on the outstanding balance of your loan.

An example of how daily interest is calculated on a $400,000 loan with a fixed rate of 4% p.a. is as follows:

($400,000 x 4%) / 365 = $43.83

Some loans will allow you to directly deposit extra money into your loan or offset account to reduce your interest payments. To determine the repayments on your loan, see the home loan repayment calculator.

A property valuation report is completed by a licensed property valuer. They will determine the value of a property through the use of data based on location, amenities, structural condition and recent sales of similar local properties.
