Should you choose a fixed or variable interest rate?
When it comes time to choose the type of home loan you should have, it can feel pretty overwhelming. To help you through this decision, we've outlined the pros and cons of fixed and variable interest rates. Of course, we are also available to discuss your options with you directly.
Pros and cons of a fixed rate
A fixed rate loan is a loan that has a fixed interest rate and therefore fixed loan repayments. The time period of these loans can vary, but you can usually "lock in" your repayments for between 1-5 years.
Pros:
- Repayments do not rise if the official interest rate rises
- Provides peace of mind for borrowers concerned about rate rises
- Allows more precise budgeting
Cons:
- Repayments do not fall if rates fall
- Allows only limited additional payments
- Penalises early payout of the loan
Pros and cons of a variable rate
A variable interest rate is one that can change over time. So if you choose a variable rate home loan, the interest you are charged can increase and/or decrease throughout the term of the loan.
Pros
- Variable rate home loans typically offer more flexibility and features
- You may be able to make additional repayments on top of your minimum repayments
- If interest rates fall, the amount of interest you are charged may decrease.
Cons
- Budgeting can be difficult due to not knowing exactly how much your repayments are going to be.
- If interest rates rise, the amount of interest you are charged may increase.
Of course, there are pros and cons to both, so why not take a moment to watch our short video below to learn more!
