Mortgage terminology can be confusing. Here's a straightforward breakdown of the key decisions you'll face - and what they mean for your repayments and flexibility.
You live in the property. Lenders typically offer lower rates for owner-occupiers because the perceived risk is lower - and you can't claim interest as a tax deduction.
You rent the property out or hold it as an asset. Rates are usually slightly higher, but the interest may be tax-deductible. Structure matters - and Jeff can help you get it right from day one.
Your interest rate is locked for a set period - usually 1–5 years. Repayments are predictable, which suits tight budgets. The trade-off: less flexibility and break costs if you exit early.
Your rate moves with the market. You benefit when rates fall, and usually get more features like offset accounts and unlimited extra repayments. More flexibility, but less certainty.
Each repayment reduces your loan balance and pays the interest. You build equity over time and will pay less total interest over the life of the loan. The standard choice for most owner-occupiers.
You only pay the interest for a set period - your loan balance doesn't reduce. Lower short-term repayments can improve investment cashflow, but you'll pay more interest over time.
No cost, no obligation. Jeff is happy to have a conversation about your situation before you commit to anything.
