With a Kiwibank Home Loan, we'll help you get mortgage free quicker.
This is all part of an overall deal that won't be beaten by the big banks for at least the first six years of your loan, and that's guaranteed*. Or we'll beat the difference.
Check out our tips on how to get mortgage free quicker.
Our competitive interest rates are just one of the ways we can help you save money and get mortgage free quicker. Our variable rate home loans have generally been lower than the average of the big banks' standard variable rates since Kiwibank started.
Check out the graph below to see how much 0.50% p.a. can save you, both in the length of your loan and the total amount you end up paying.
This example is based on a standard variable $300,000 loan, with repayments of $1,000 a fortnight. In this example, an interest rate of 6.50% p.a. instead of 7% p.a. would save you around $58,000 in interest and cut around 2 years off your loan.

**The refinancing package is free if your loan is over $50,000, less than 80% of the current market value of the residential properties provided as security, transferred to Kiwibank without changing who owns the properties and secured by no more than two securities, if the refinancing documentation is not signed under a power of attorney and if the refinancing does not form part of a series of same day transactions.
