Suncorp home loan features

Suncorp features three main home loan product lines, including a ‘Back to Basics’ home loan, variable rate home loans, and fixed rate home loans. Features include:

• 100% mortgage offset: Some Suncorp home loans allow you to save on interest by linking the loan to a Suncorp Everyday Options bank account that can be put in “offset mode”.

• Suncorp package: For an annual fee, you can bundle other Suncorp products (like bank accounts and credit cards) into your home loan, while also obtaining interest rate discounts.

• Redraw facility: Suncorp Cashback lets you withdraw additional repayments you’ve made via internet banking.

• Split option: You can split your loan between fixed and variable rates to offer the flexibility of variable with the payment certainty of fixed.

• Rate lock: Lock in your fixed rate from time of application for up to 90 days.

The ‘Back to Basics’ home loan line also comes with no ongoing account keeping fees. For fixed rate home loans, customers can fix for a period of up to five years.

“We know what’s important to our customers, and we are committed to delivering banking that is good for them and for the world.” - Suncorp Bank CEO Clive van Horen.
