Today ING cut a few variable home loan interest rates by up to 19 basis points, after raising some fixed loans by up to 40 basis points last week.
Last week's biggest hikes were to the one and five-year fixed investment home loans paying interest-only (IO), while a number of other fixed loans also saw slight increases in their interest rates.
Some ING term deposit interest rates were also slashed last week.
Today, ING balanced the seesaw by cutting variable home loans for owner-occupiers by up to 19 basis points, namely to the Orange Advantage and Mortgage Simplifier product lines paying principal and interest (P&I).
Some key cuts were:
- Orange Advantage 150-499k 80%: Down to 2.64% p.a. (2.98% p.a. comparison rate*)
- Orange Advantage 150k+ 95%: Down to 2.94% p.a. (3.28% p.a. comparison rate*)
- Mortgage Simplifier 150k-499k 80%: Down to 2.59% p.a. (2.62% p.a. comparison rate*)
- Mortgage Simplifier 150k+ 95%: Down to 2.89% p.a. (2.92% p.a. comparison rate*)
The lowest advertised rate to see a cut was to the Mortgage Simplifier product line lending $1 million or more with a max loan-to-value ratio of 80%, which is now down to 2.55% p.a. (2.58% p.a. comparison rate*).
The main difference between the two ING product lines is that with the Mortgage Simplifier borrowers pay no ongoing fees, while Orange Advantage loans come with a 100% offset facility.
