Building a home

Your dream home awaits

Are you building the home of your dreams? Talk to us about how you can pay for it in a way that best suits your needs.






 

Get started

Should you build or buy?

Some things to consider before you decide to build.

Good

  • Design it the way you want
  • Potential stamp duty savings in certain states and territories

Bad

  • Possibility of unexpected costs
  • More decisions to make (such as colours, designs and materials)

Decided to build? There are more decisions to make.

Would you prefer a small or large block? Are you after a modern or classic design? Are you knocking down and rebuilding, buying off the plan or getting a house and land package? 

Once you've narrowed it down, you'll have a clearer idea of the type of loan you'll need.

Choose the right lender with the right construction loan

Australia's most awarded home lenderdisclaimer has construction loans that could help you save on interest, by letting you make progressive payments as the construction bills come in from the builder or developer.

If you need to finance a block of land, choose one of these land loans:

  • ANZ Residential Land Loan
  • ANZ Residential Investment Land Loan

And if you're building, you could apply for a construction loan:

If you already have a construction loan with ANZ, our Construction Loan checklist (PDF 67kB)disclaimer can help you know what you’ll need to send us for each stage to organise payment.

Things to consider

Get Approval in Principle firstdisclaimer

Before you choose your block and builder, talk to us to get an indication of what you may be able to borrow. This may also help when you speak to your builder or developer, as you'll have a better idea of what extras or variations you can afford.

Buying off the plan

Signing a contract to buy a property before it's completed has some advantages. But it also comes with some potential risks to consider, such as the uncertainty of when the property will be completed.

Make use of your equity with a supplementary loandisclaimer

If you have equity in your existing home or investment property, you can apply to access it with a supplementary loandisclaimer. Choose from an eligible ANZ loan (ANZ Standard Variable, ANZ Simplicity PLUS or ANZ Fixed) that suits your needs best. Then you can use that money for a variety of different purposes according to your needs.

Are you building your first home?

If you're a first home buyer, you may be able to claim a First Home Owner Grant from your state government.

FAQs - get your questions answered

   What are LMI and LVR?

If you need to borrow more than 80% of the amount your property is valued at by ANZ you may need to pay Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). Banks often call this percentage the ‘LVR’ , which stands for ‘Loan to Value Ratio’. LMI protects the lender if you default on your loan. For some property types, LMI might be required when LVR is less than 80%. 

Learn more about ANZ LMI with our Key Fact Sheet (PDF 370kB).

  

   Should I get an offset account?disclaimer

If you have money in an everyday banking account, you may choose to move it into an ANZ One offset account. You can link it to your ANZ Standard Variable loan or one-year ANZ Fixed loan to help you save on interest charges. The money you have in ANZ One will offset the amount you owe on your home loan, and you’ll only be charged interest on the difference.

   Principal and interest, or interest only?

Let's put it this way: if you choose interest only, your minimum repayments will be lower during the interest only period because you are not required to repay the principal balance. You will have to repay the principal down the track and you will pay more over the life of your loan. There may be additional restrictions on the amount you can borrow or loan type you can select if you choose to pay interest only. Choosing to repay principal and interest means that you're actually paying off the total loan amount over the period of the loan, not just the interest charges. Learn more about repayment types

   How is interest calculated?

Interest is calculated based on the unpaid daily balance of your loan. For example, if you had a loan balance of $150,000 and your interest rate was 6% p.a., your interest charge would be: $150,000 x 6% divided by 365 days = $24.66 for that day. For most ANZ Home Loans, interest is usually calculated daily and charged monthly. For details refer to the ANZ Consumer Lending Terms and Conditions (PDF 412kB) and your letter of offer.
