Should I choose a fixed or variable rate?

One of the top questions for buyers is which kind of rate to choose - fixed or variable. While there’s no one size fits all answer, our team here at Mortgage Choice in Chermside can help educate you on the benefits and drawbacks of each, and guide you toward the choice that best fits you and your life.

A fixed rate loan involves locking in your interest rate for a period of time, usually several years, so your repayment amount will not change. However, a variable rate loan may change at any point subject to your lender’s discretion. This may be influenced by RBA decisions or other factors.

The benefits of a fixed rate include

Consistent and predictable repayments, allowing for precise budgeting
Avoiding any interest rate rises
Financial peace of mind in a volatile economy

While the drawbacks include

Lack of reduction if interest rates fall
Less flexibility to make additional payments
Larger penalties for exiting the loan
