Frequently asked questions
What’s an offset account, and how does it work?
An offset account is a clever way to save on your home loan interest. It’s like a regular transaction account, but here’s the magic: the money in this account reduces (or offsets) your home loan balance. You only pay interest on the difference between your loan and what’s in the offset account. For example, if your home loan is $400,000 and you’ve got $20,000 in your offset, you’re only paying interest on $380,000. You can still use the account for deposits, withdrawals, or everyday spending—it’s super flexible!
How do I set up an offset account?
At Summerland Bank, our Premium Home Loan includes an offset account as a built-in feature. No fuss, no extra steps! Just call our friendly lenders at 1300 728 728 or pop into a branch to chat about getting started.
What are the perks of an offset account?
There are a lot of benefits to having an offset account:
Save on interest: The less interest you pay, the better, right? The balance in your offset lowers the interest you’re charged.
Pay off your home loan faster: Because you’re saving on interest, you can shave years off your loan.
Tax-smart savings: Since the money in an offset account doesn’t earn interest, there’s no extra tax to worry about.
Total flexibility: Need to access your funds? No problem—you can deposit or withdraw money whenever you want, just like a regular transaction account.
What’s the difference between an offset account and a redraw facility?
Both options are great for reducing the interest on your home loan, but they work a little differently:
An offset account is a transaction account that lowers your loan balance, saving you interest. You can access your money anytime.
A redraw facility lets you withdraw extra repayments you’ve made on your loan. It’s not as flexible as an offset account but can work well if you want to tuck those extra funds away.
Which is better for you? If you like having immediate access to your money, an offset account is the way to go. But if you’re more focused on saving without frequent withdrawals, a redraw facility might suit you better.
Is an offset account right for me?
It depends on your financial goals. If you usually keep a healthy balance in your bank account, an offset account can work wonders for saving interest on the loan. If you’re unsure, give our team a call for personalised advice—it’s what we’re here for!
What’s another great perk of a Premium Home Loan?
When you take out a Premium Home Loan with Summerland Bank, you’ll enjoy waived annual fees on our credit cards and waived all transaction fees for the life of your loan. It’s just one more way we’re making things easier for you.
