Is a redraw facility as good as an offset account? Does it perhaps depend upon whether interest is calculated daily and whether you can leave portion of your salary in the account for a decent period of time before needing to access due to larger bills like vehicle registration or home insurance?

Hi Fiona, The funds in your offset account are generally available more readily and with less restrictions. For instance, some redraw facilities require a minimum amount to be transferred (eg $500), whereas with an offset account, you could transfer as little as 0.01c from the account if you wish. With both offset and redraws, you benefit from paying less interest while your funds are parked in the mortgage or offset account, so the financial benefit is almost even.
Hope this helps!

Hi David, the interest rate changes frequently and depends on many specifics such as loan type (owner occupier or investment? Interest only or P&I?) As of today’s date, the rate list for an owner occupier P&I loan at 60%LVR is 5.74%; at 70% LVR or less is 5.79%; and at 80% is 5.84%.
Fees are listed in the “Fees” tab, and they vary depending on the type of loan you choose.
Hope this helps!

Hi Finder team,
I’m wondering if someone could help me understand how the variable interest rate are calculated if there’s no offset account.
Actually, I was told by HSBC that if I deposit all my savings in my loan account the outstanding balance will come down, and monthly interest will be charged on the outstanding balance. Also, there will be no limit on depositing extra funds, and I can rewards funds anytime.
However, after settling down my loan the first month’s interest has been charged on the total loan amount of 250k, despite the fact I had already deposited more than 55k in my loan account and outstanding balance is now 195k.
So my question is what’s the point of depositing extra funds if the interest will always be calculated on the actual signed up loan amount ? Also, is it that normal for banks to differ from their verbal statements once the loan has been settled ?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Sharez,
We’re not licenced to provided financial advice, so you’ll need to talk to your bank about your specific situation.
However, we can give you general information about how it works.
With an offset account, any savings “offset” the amount of interest you pay and instead, that payment goes towards the principal
Eg you have a loan of $250,000 and your repayment is $1600 a month. The interest payable is 5%, or $1041 per month. This means of your repayment, $1041 goes to interest and the remaining $559 goes towards repaying the $250k balance.
With an offset balance of $55,000, your interest for the month is reduced to just $813. You still make a payment of $1600 for the month, however $813 goes to interest, and the remaining $787 goes towards repaying the $250k balance.
This way, with an offset account, you pay less interest and repay the outstanding debt faster. However the repayments say the same every week/month.
If you have paid these funds directly into your loan account rather than the offset account, the same calculations apply. Either way, the repayments are the same, but MORE of your repayment goes towards the principal rather than interest.
Hope this helps!

My existing loan is up soon and i need to refinance. Its an investment property, over $250k, with over 40% equity, and I was wondering what rates I can obtain and do I qualify for the cashback offer? Thank you

Hi Ron,
The interest rate that will be assigned will depend on several factors such as credit history, income, etc. You may use HSBC’s Home Loan Borrowing Power Calculator to have an idea.
To qualify for the cashback, you need to meet the following criteria:
Submit your new home loan applications for full approval between 15 February 2021 and 28 February 2023
Settle the loan by 30 April 2023 and have it refinanced from a financial institution other than HSBC Bank Australia
Thanks,
Rebecca
