In many cases an offset account may have some type of additional fee for the product, if you don’t use your offset account regularly as part of your mortgage reduction strategy then you need to ask yourself the question ‘am I paying extra for this privilege and is it costing me more than it is savings me?’. #offset #homeloan #savemoney

23.01.2022 Benefits of offset accounts Mortgage offset accounts work similar to your savings account, except that rather than earning interest on your savings you simply save money on your mortgage.

20.01.2022 I’m considering an interest only home loan what do I need to know? It’s important to understand how interest only loans may affect your repayments in future. If you’re on a 30 year loan term with principal and interest repayments, then your repayments are calculated over this time if however, you take a 30 year loan term, with an initial 5 year interest only loan term once that 5 years interest only period is over you now only have 25 years to pay the remaining balance. What this means is that your repayments are calculated over this time and thus you not only have a higher repayment, but have to demonstrate the bank you can also afford these higher repayments so it could in turn affect your borrowing capacity. #interestonly #homeloan #emanatefinance
