How to manage your loan
Understand your home loan
We try to make things easy for our customers, but home loans can sometimes get complicated. We can help.
Make repayments
You have a number of convenient options, including adding your home loan to your internet banking profile and setting up regular repayments.
Making the most of your ANZ Breakfree Packagedisclaimer
Is your home loan bundled with a credit card and everyday account? Take advantage of the great range of discounts and benefits you could get.
Changing your loan repayments
If you have a fixed rate loan term that’s expiring, or if you’d like to switch from a variable to fixed rate, we may be able to help.
Make extra payments
If you're not in a fixed rate term, you could add extra to each loan payment, or deposit large amounts (such as tax returns, dividends or bonuses). By doing so, you could save on interest and pay off your loan soonerdisclaimer.
Consider setting up more frequent repayments
You may like to think about changing the frequency of your repayments. For example, if you make fortnightly repayments instead of monthly repayments, you'll be reducing your total interest charges.
Save on interest payable with an offset account
If you have an eligible loan (such as an ANZ Standard Variable loan or a one-year ANZ Fixed loan), you can link an ANZ One offset accountdisclaimer to it. The more money you have in your linked offset account, the less interest you'll need to pay on your home loan.
Repay principal and interest
If you're looking to pay off the total amount of your home loan rather than just the interest, then switching from interest-only to principal and interest is something you could consider.
Redraw your extra repayments if you need to
ANZ Redraw could let you access extra payments you've made to an eligible loan account when you need to.disclaimer You can easily access your redraw funds via ANZ Internet Banking and other convenient ways.
Using equity to build wealth through property investment
Unlocking the equity in your home could be an option if you were thinking about purchasing an investment property, as it could help with a deposit for that purchase. Investors may be able to negatively gear their property investments depending on their personal circumstances.disclaimer
Increase your home loan
If you find that your financial circumstances have changed and you need additional funds, you could have options such as applying for a top-up or supplementary loan. Just contact one of our home loan specialists to discuss your options.
Get the flexibility of a split loan
if you want the benefits of a variable rate home as well as the certainty of a fixed rate home loan, you could get the best of both worlds by splitting your loan.
Having trouble with repayments
We realise that financial circumstances change, and we’ll try our best to help if you’re facing problems with your loan repayments.
