Calculations are estimates provided as a guide only.

To determine which Bankwest loan is appropriate for you and for your circumstances please discuss with your Bankwest lender or broker.

Different financial institutions apply different formulas to their lending decisioning tools as such the refinance calculator may not apply a like for like calculation.

The Repayments & refinance calculator assumes and estimates your current loan repayments are Variable Principal and Interest (P&I), if you choose to compare an Interest Only (IO) Repayment loan the calculation will display IO repayment amount and display savings in repayments compared to your current P&I repayments. In this scenario although your repayment is lower you will not be paying any principal off your loan during the Interest Only period.

Calculations are not a loan approval and do not guarantee product attributes availability. Applications are subject to credit approval, satisfactory security and minimum deposit requirements. Conditions apply to all loan options. Full terms and conditions will be set out in our loan offer including the interest rate and repayment amount, if an offer is made. Lenders’ Mortgage Insurance may apply to your loan. This is a one-off cost and may be added to the loan amount. Any of these additional amounts will increase repayments under the loan. The calculator does not include LMI.

Fees and charges are payable. The calculations do not take into account fees, charges or other amounts that may be charged (such as establishment or monthly service fees or stamp duty). Fees, rates and terms and conditions are subject to change.

For fixed rate loans, after the fixed period ends, your repayment will change based on rates applicable at that time. For interest only loans, the estimated repayment amount applies to the interest only period.

Comparison rate is calculated on the statutory assumption of $150,000 loan over 25 years but the minimum required loan amount is $200,000 for the Complete Home Loan Package. Different rates apply for different loan amounts and may depend on the duration of a fixed rate period or the ratio of the loan amount to the property value.

WARNING: This comparison rate applies only to the example or examples given. Different amounts and terms will result in different comparison rates. Costs such as redraw fees or early repayment fees, and cost savings such as fee waivers, are not included in the comparison rate but may influence the cost of the loan.

Common questions

Making extra repayments is a great way to pay off your mortgage sooner. Even small, frequent additional repayments can have a huge impact. Some home loans, generally fixed, allow you make extra repayments up to a certain amount and others, generally variable, allow you to make unlimited repayments.

Principal and interest repayments means your regular home loan repayments pay down both the amount you’ve borrowed (the principal) and the interest you’ve accrued.

Read this guide to understand why you might choose to pay principal and interest.​

If you’re making interest only repayments then you’re only paying down the interest on your loan for a set period of time, usually one to five years. When you repay interest only, the total amount borrowed (the principal) will not reduce.

The short answer is yes, it could help lower your repayments. An offset account is a bank account that’s linked to your home loan. The money that you keep in it is ‘offset’ against your home loan balance. What this means is that the balance of your offset account is included in the daily interest calculation – reducing the total interest you need to repay and therefore your repayments are reduced too.
