Beyond Bank Australia home loan rates
Beyond Bank Australia home loan rates vary from product to product, but generally tend to be middle of the market. Generally speaking, they don’t offer the lowest rates, but their rates are lower than those charged by the big banks.
As a challenger lender, Beyond Bank must find ways to stand out from Australia’s big four banks. Their need to differentiate is one reason they offer lower rates. Another reason is that the bank is owned by its customers rather than shareholders, which means it doesn’t have the same imperative to maximise profits.
Beyond Bank Australia has a range of home loan products that each come with unique interest rates. As a general rule, owner-occupiers are given lower interest rates than investors and variable loans are cheaper than fixed-rate loans. Interest rates can be fixed for up to five years; generally, the rate will go up as the term lengthens.
Beyond Bank Australia home loans review
Beyond Bank Australia is not one of Australia’s big four banks, and therefore it doesn’t provide the same range of home loan products as its larger competitors. It does, however, tend to charge lower rates than the big four banks.
Beyond Bank Australia home loan rates tend to be moderately low to moderate, with owner-occupier loans leaning toward the moderately low range. Investors who pay principal and interest on their variable home loan can typically find moderately low rates as well.
While Beyond Bank’s rates are generally on the cheaper end of the spectrum, its fees are more likely to be moderate than market-leading. Both upfront and ongoing fees typically sit within the moderate to moderately high range. These fees include one-off establishment fees, settlement fees and monthly account-keeping fees.
