Home Loan Interest Rates

Home Loan Interest Rates have been sitting at low levels since the RBA's April 2009 decision to drop the cash rate to 3.00%. Whilst the central bank's rate is at a 49-year low, not all banks and lenders have decided to pass the rate cut onto consumers.

The ANZ bank was the first to drop their fixed rate loans, closely followed by the Commonwealth Bank.

While some borrowers see low home loan interest rates as repayment relief, others are making full use of low rates to make additional repayments on their mortgage. Additional repayments can help to trim down the amount of interest paid and the also shortens the term of your mortgage. Any lump sum payments will have the same positive effects. Changing your monthly instalments to fortnightly or weekly will also aid in reducing the interest on your loan.

The table below shows the today's best home loan interest rates, ranked by lowest variable rate loans.
