What is mortgage switching?
Mortgage switching, more commonly known in the industry as
refinancing, is the act of moving from one home loan to
another. This can be a move to a different loan from the same
lender, or a new lender together.
People choose to refinance for a number of reasons, like:
- Wanting a better interest rate
- Wanting to pay less in fees
- Wanting to switch between variable and fixed rates
- Wanting to access the equity in their home
- Wanting to access more beneficial features (such as offset accounts )
How much can you save by refinancing?
Refinancing to a home loan with a lower interest rate can
potentially save you thousands of dollars over the life of a
standard home loan. Even a slightly lower interest rate can
make a huge difference. Let’s say you have $400,000, 30-year
home loan with P&I (principal and interest) repayments, and
you decide to refinance your home loan from 4.00% p.a. to a
new interest rate of 3.50% p.a:
In this case, refinancing to a lower interest rate could save you
more than $36,000 over your entire home loan.
You could also save more money by switching to a home loan
with an offset account, or one with lower fees.
