Teachers Mutual cuts rates by up to 31 basis points

Teachers Mutual Bank has cut its interest rates for owner-occupiers who take out new home loans and fix their rates.

Borrowers must also have a maximum loan-to-value ratio (LVR) of 80 per cent and opt for principal-and-interest repayments if they want to qualify for the lower fixed rates.

The new rates are:

  • 3.79 per cent for one-year fixed rates
  • 3.84 per cent for two-year fixed rates
  • 3.99 per cent for three-year fixed rates

The changes took effect on 17 August, and also apply to UniBank and Firefighters Mutual Bank, which are subsidiaries of Teachers Mutual.
