"I’ve been with CommBank for four years. When I was looking for my first home loan in Australia, I initially considered smaller lenders with lower rates and didn’t even think of my existing bank. However, after spending an hour on hold with a smaller lender, I decided to give CommBank a call and never looked back. They assigned a direct contact who I could call anytime and offered a significant discount on their variable rate. It was a surprisingly straightforward process and better value than expected."
How do I apply for a Commonwealth Bank mortgage?

Hi my daughter (42) has a home loan with Westpac. Loan 300K over 30 yr. Current rate 5.5% variable. Has had issues with credit rating. If my wife an I act as guarantor $3m in assets would it help her lower the rate
%
Hi Bevans,
Having a guarantor may be able to help your daughter secure a lower rate from some lenders. She can compare home loans with guarantor options here.
Consulting a mortgage broker is also advisable to help her find the right finance option.
All the best,
Rebecca

Hi,
I am just wanting to know if Commonwealth allow a split family pledge? I have found a property I wish to buy and my parents and my parents in law would like to share the guarantee against the property, rather than putting the full amount up on their own. Is this possible? I have no other loans or credit cards, stable employment and a good credit history.
Thanks
Hi Violet,
thanks for the question.
This will be decided on a case-by-case basis, so you might wish to contact CBA directly to find out if this would be something you would be able to do.
I hope this helps,
Marc.
