Variable Rate Mortgages
A variable rate mortgage is the market standard and a popular option amongst mortgagees. Home Loans with variable rates offer a range of features that allow you to choose the frequency of your repayments, and facilities for redraw.
By applying for a variable rate mortgage, your interest rate will move along with the market rate, so you may find your repayments changing many times a year. This makes it harder to budget for your repayments, so try and factor in a 2 percent buffer to allow for rate movements.
The alternative is to fix your rate for a few years, which is useful for when you think that rates will rise in the future. Many borrowers choose a combination, splitting their loan so that some of it has a fixed rate and the rest a variable rate.
